The Met Gala 2025 is right around the corner, with the first Monday in May feeling like it comes around faster and faster every year. For most people, the Met Gala begins and ends at the red carpet: the arrivals are live-streamed, the official photographs disseminated across the world, and the outfits endlessly critiqued.
This year’s Met Gala theme is Tailored for You, in connection with the Costume Institute's new exhibition, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style. You can expect to see lots of menswear and (hopefully) plenty of creations by Black designers, in keeping with the exhibition’s focus on Black Dandyism.
