The Met Gala is a yearly fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute, attended by A-list celebrities from fashion, film and music.
The theme for 2025 was “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” inspired by the cultural significance of Black dandyism and menswear throughout history.
The dress code, “Tailored for You,” encouraged guests to wear custom-tailored pieces celebrating Black fashion and individuality in suiting.
Individual tickets cost $75,000, while tables can go for $350,000. Attendance is invite-only and seats are often bought by major brands for their ambassadors.
Anna Wintour led the event alongside co-chairs Pharrell Williams, Lewis Hamilton, Colman Domingo, A$AP Rocky, and LeBron James.
Viewers in the US can catch the action on Peacock and E! Online, while many media outlets will stream their own coverage across social platforms like Instagram and TikTok.
The Costume Institute’s exhibition showcases Black style from the 18th century to today, through the lens of tailoring and elegance.
