All the Best Fashion From the 2025 Met Gala Red Carpet
See the best and most exciting style moments from this year’s Costume Institute Benefit.
The first Monday in May has arrived, and you know what that means—it’s time for the annual Met Gala. Every year, attendees who’ve managed to score a coveted invite to fashion’s biggest night flock to the Metropolitan Museum of Art on Fifth Avenue in New York City, decked out in their most high-fashion ensembles. Many of these outfits have been in the works for months, as A-list guests work with designers, stylists and the rest of their glam team to curate an appropriately on-theme look for the evening.

The Met Gala is a fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute, and as always, the gala’s theme aligns with the corresponding exhibition at the Met; this year, it is “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” inspired by guest curator and Barnard professor Monica L. Miller’s 2009 book, “Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity.” The exhibition focuses on the concept of the Black dandy and examines the importance of fashion to Black identity throughout history, per Vogue; the dress code is “Tailored for You,” a nod to the exhibit’s focus on menswear and suiting.
The guest list is kept tightly under wraps until the evening, but the 2025 Met Gala co-chairs are Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky and Pharrell Williams, along with Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour, of course. LeBron James is the honorary chair, but announced today he won’t be able to attend the red carpet due to an injury. For the first time since 2019, there is also a host committee, including Ayo Edebiri, Edward Enninful, Jeremy O. Harris, Olivier Rousteing, Simone Biles and more.
The Met Gala red carpet is perhaps the most exciting fashion event of the year, and surely the most fun. Attendees at the 2025 Met Gala did not disappoint when it came to their sartorial choices—below, see all the best and most exciting Met Gala looks.
