The Met Gala is an exclusive annual event that follows a specific theme each year. The theme for this year is ‘Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,’ drawn from Monica Miller’s research, particularly her book Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity.

Monica is the chair of Africana Studies at Barnard College, as well as a professor at the institute.

The 2025 gala theme focuses on menswear, 22 years after the ‘Men In Skirts’ theme – which was the first gala to focus only on menswear. 

Monica Miller explains that Black dandyism serves as a method and a mechanism to reconsider one’s identity, to envision oneself in a new setting. She highlights that during historical periods like slavery, it was crucial to challenge societal norms regarding humanity and individual worth.

The Met Gala 2025 will be co-chaired by Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, Colman Domingo, Pharrell Williams and Anna Wintour, with Lebron James as the honorary chair. 

Zendaya chose flared white trousers with a tailored button up and blazer, adding a large hat. 

Miley showcased her toned midsection in the all black look, adding a choker necklace and her hair pulled back in a slick bun. 

Gigi looked incredible in her striking metallic look, paired with her old Hollywood curls; The model added mauve hued lipstick to her lovely look.

Lana’s look had a feathered accent along the back of her blouse. 

The beauty wore her hair back in waves with minimal makeup, highlighting her stunning natural looks.
