Fashion’s biggest night is set to get underway with the star-studded arrivals on the famed steps of Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The Met Gala is one of the most exclusive invitations in town and this year will be no different.
The theme of the 2025 Met Gala is “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” which is based on the Costume Institute’s spring 2025 exhibition which opens to the public May 10 and runs through Oct. 26. It’s inspired by Monica L. Miller’s book, “Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity.”
