As the final celebrity entered the Metropolitan Museum of Art, fashion lovers worldwide were left with unforgettable looks and a tribute to Black style at the 2025 Met Gala.
The Met Gala 2025 drew to a close in dazzling style as Rihanna, one of the event’s most anticipated guests, made her entrance inside the Metropolitan Museum of Art after walking the blue carpet. The annual fundraising gala, known as fashion’s most prestigious night, this year celebrated the Costume Institute’s new exhibit titled Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.
The exhibit highlights the artistry, innovation, and cultural significance of Black tailoring and design throughout history, providing a fitting theme for the night’s bold, elegant, and thought-provoking ensembles. From avant-garde silhouettes to refined tributes to Black heritage, celebrities embraced the theme with creativity and reverence.
As always, the guest list was tightly curated, including designers, models, actors, musicians, and industry power players. Attendees were asked to interpret the theme through their wardrobe, resulting in a showcase of tailored elegance and fashion storytelling.
While the public watches the red — or in this case, blue — carpet unfold in real time, the events inside remain private. The night includes a formal dinner, curated performances, and an exclusive preview of the exhibit. The gala also serves its primary purpose: raising funds to support future exhibitions at the Costume Institute.
As the festivities continued behind closed doors, fans across the globe began the traditional process of ranking the night’s best-dressed guests and dissecting each outfit's meaning. But for those following from afar, the curtain has closed — until next year’s gala brings new themes, surprises, and fashion moments.
