Fashion's most spectacular night returns in full glory as the Met Gala returns with its latest installment to dazzle Metropolitan Museum of Art with its splendor. Come Monday, May 5, and the grand event of fashion will mesmerize one and all with its signature blend of couture, culture, and celebrity. The Met Gala is more than a red carpet - it's a celebration of culture, a showcase of bold fashion, and one of the most glamorous charity events in the world.
Formally known as the Costume Institute Benefit, the event raises funds for The Met's Costume Institute while launching its annual spring exhibition. This year's exhibition 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style' explores three centuries of Black sartorial excellence through the lens of dandyism, style, identity, and power. As always, the exhibit's theme sets the tone for the evening’s fashion, with attendees interpreting the dress code in custom looks crafted by the world's most revered designers.
Met Gala is traditionally held on the first Monday in May. Co-chaired this year by actor Colman Domingo, designer-musician Pharrell Williams, Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton, rapper A$AP Rocky, and Vogue's legendary Anna Wintour, with LeBron James as honorary chair, the 2025 gala promises not just style but substance.
Whether you are watching it for the head-turning fashion, the cultural commentary, or simply the memes, here's everything you need to know about the mega fashion event, as the world awaits for it with bated breath.
