Sorry Everyone, Zoë Kravitz Has Skipped the 2025 Met Gala Red Carpet

US actress Zoe Kravitz arrives for the 2021 Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on September 13, 2021 in New York. - This year's Met Gala has a distinctively youthful imprint, hosted by singer Billie Eilish, actor Timothee Chalamet, poet Amanda Gorman and tennis star Naomi Osaka, none of them older than 25. The 2021 theme is "In America: A Lexicon of Fashion.".

At Vogue's annual Met Gala, there are several occurrences that can always be counted upon: Rihanna will arrive late, someone will debut a shocking hairstyle, a new couple will make their debut, and Zoë Kravitz will wear a column dress. Though Riri stuck to tradition, Kravitz went for a shocking change-up—skipping not only her most trusted silhouette, but the event all together.

This year, the Blink Twice director and actor RSVPed "no" to the Metropolitan Museum of Art's May 5 soirée. Even among opulent outfits from stars like Dua Lipa, Lupita Nyong’o, and Gigi Hadid, Kravitz's absence was easily one of the most surprising moments of the entire evening.
