The upcoming gala, scheduled for May 5 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, will center around the theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” celebrating the historical and cultural significance of Black dandyism. Attendees are encouraged to follow the dress code, “Tailored For You,” offering a chance for innovative interpretations influenced by the exhibit’s exploration of menswear.

Biles, who recently achieved historic success at the 2024 Paris Olympics, shared her enthusiasm about returning to the Met Gala after her unforgettable debut in 2021. Her first appearance featured a stunning 88-pound gown adorned with Swarovski crystals, designed by Beckett Fogg and Piotrek Panszczyk.

Reflecting on that moment through Instagram stories, she provided glimpses of her preparation and red-carpet experiences, which are now part of fashion history. Owens, a safety for the Chicago Bears, also described this opportunity as a “dream come true” on social media.

The 2025 Met Gala host committee also includes other prominent figures like Angel Reese, Usher, Regina King, and André 3000. With its predominantly Black leadership (aside from longtime chair Anna Wintour), this year’s committee highlights the event’s dedication to celebrating Black excellence in fashion and culture. As Biles and Owens gear up for this prestigious occasion, their involvement signifies their expanding influence beyond sports into the worlds of fashion and global culture.
