Suit Up: All The Best Red Carpet Looks From The 2025 Met Gala

In the theme of 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style', guests are honouring the power and politics of personal style with poise

With the arrival of May comes the most illustrious affair of the fashion calendar: the Met Gala. On the first Monday of the month, the white tent once again envelops the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, ushering in Hollywood’s finest for a night where style meets spectacle, and the red carpet becomes a canvas for sartorial storytelling.

This year’s theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, draws from Monica L. Miller’s seminal book, Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity, and is brought to life through an exhibition curated by Miller and The Costume Institute’s Andrew Bolton. It charts the evolution of the Black Dandy—from its 18th-century European origins to today’s contemporary reinterpretations—honouring the power, poetry, and politics of what we wear.

More than just suits, this dress code asks guests to interpret tailoring in its most expressive form. Think razor-sharp cuts, subversive suiting, and silhouettes that speak to refined rebellion. Co-chaired by Lewis Hamilton, Colman Domingo, Pharrell Williams and A$AP Rocky, alongside Anna Wintour and honorary chair LeBron James, it’s the first all-male panel to helm fashion’s grandest occasion.

And now, the curtain lifts. Below, we present every major moment from the Met Gala 2025 red carpet—live from New York.
