Bringing together the biggest names in fashion and Hollywood, the Met Gala is arguably the most pivotal event in our calendars each year. The Christmas of red carpets if you will, the 2025 Met Gala is already on our minds despite being months away.
Thankfully new details about the event, including the 2025 theme and co-chairs have finally been released.
Here’s everything we know about the fundraising event for the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, so far.
What Is The Met Gala Theme For 2025?
The theme for the 2025 Met Gala has been announced as “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” and is described as an expression of Black dandyism.
Based on The Costume Institute’s Spring 2025 Exhibition, both the theme and the collection is inspired by the work of Monica L.Miller’s 2009 book, Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity and will “examine the historical and cultural emergence of the Black Dandy, tracing the figure from 18th-century depictions to modern-day representations.”
What Is The Met Gala 2025 Dress Code?
While the theme for the next Met Gala has been announced, a more precise dress code is still to come.
For example last year’s exhibition theme was “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion” but the dress code read, “The Garden Of Time.” This was translated to Elizabethan-era corsets and dresses, a decaying of time and connections to land, sea and sky.
Who Is Hosting The Met Gala 2025?
As always, Anna Wintour will co-chair 2025 Met Gala, this year joined by Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, Pharrell Williams and honorary chair, LeBron James.
When Is The 2025 Met Gala?
Next year’s Met Galal will take place on May 5, 2025, at the New York Metropolitan Museum Of Art. So, mark your calendars and cue the countdown.
