OThe most exciting fashion of fashion is almost there: the Met Gala, where all the eyes are on celebrities while they enter the Metropolitan Museum of Art while wearing works of art themselves.
The party has evolved and widened during its existence, and although the gala could collect funds for the Museum’s costume institute, it has become legendary in its own right. Now, each year, the world is waiting with a breath to see who has obtained an invitation to the Met Gala and what outfits they will wear.
Here is what we can expect from the iteration in 2025 of the annual celebration of celebrity, fashion and art.
When is the 2025 Gala is? How can I look at?
The Gala 2025 will take place on Monday May 5 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. The public can join the action of the night by looking at the live broadcast of the event on the pages and the Vogue website on social networks.
The exhibition connected to this year Met Gala will be exhibited from May 10 to October 26, 2025.
What is the theme and who decides it?
The theme of this year, selected mainly by Andrew Bolton, the chief curator of the Costume Institute of the Metropolitan Museum of Art is “Superfine: Tadoming Black Style”. The show is inspired by the 2009 book “Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Style of Black Diaasporic Identity”, by Monica L. Miller and will focus on the evolution of sewing and style with “the formation of black identities”. It is the first time from the 2003 “Men in Jirts” theme that Met Gala will focus on male fashion.
Miller, professor of African studies at the Barnard College, also worked to organize the exhibition. Since Miller’s award -winning book covers 300 years of Afrodiaspric History, the opportunities for the fashion of the Met Gala are large.
“Dandyism may seem frivolous, but it often poses a challenge or transcendence of social and cultural hierarchies,” Miller said in a press release by MET announcing the theme. “He asks questions about identity, representation and mobility in relation to race, class, sex, sexuality and power. The exhibition explores this concept both as a declaration and a provocation. ”

What does this mean for the dress code?
The Met Gala clothing code this year “suitable for you”, specifically nodding for men’s clothes and the size of the seam as inspiration for the evening dress. The “for you” aspect of the code, although deliberately, leaves a lot to interpretation – inspiring personal preference, style and creative freedom.
Who are the co -chairs that welcome this year’s gala?
As he has been doing since 1995 (excluding two years), the editor -in -chief and the trustee of the Institut des Costumes Anna Wintour will be co -president of the Met Gala. Wintour has been an important reason why the museum’s annual profit has been transformed over the past three decades into a starry event full of celebrities.
Wintour will be joined by co-president Colman Domingo, the racing car driver Lewis Hamilton, the rapper A $ AP Rocky and the singer-songwriter Pharrell Williams. Williams is also currently creative director of the male section of Louis Vuitton
