Black history, culture and style were celebrated at the annual Met Gala on Monday, 5th May 2025. Despite the rainy weather, celebrities, fashion designers and artists impressed, each donning a unique, state-of-the-art outfit.
The theme, "Tailored for You," drew inspiration from the Costume Institute's accompanying exhibition, "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style." This exhibition highlights how Black individuals have historically used fashion, particularly suits, for self-expression, portraying the evolution of Black dandyism. The Met Gala's theme encouraged creativity and provided a stylistic framework.
