It’s the first Monday in May, and you know what that means – it’s the Met Gala 2025, hosted at New York City‘s Metropolitan Museum of Art.
The famous night, which has brought tons of viral fashion moments and mishaps over the years, is hosted by the celebrated Vogue editor, Anna Wintour, who has been the chairwoman of the grand event since 1995.
This year’s theme is Superfine: Tailoring Black Style. It explores Black dandyism from the 18th century to its revival during the Harlem Renaissance and its impact on fashion today.
The dress code is Tailored For You, in a nod to menswear and suiting as seen in the exhibit at the Met, which is what the gala benefits.
The dress code is specifically about embracing looks reflective of the celebrity’s own personal style. There will be different takes on suiting, including versions of the zoot suit made popular by jazz musicians in the 1940s and bold, colorful styles.
In addition to Wintour herself, this year’s co-chairs include Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, and Pharrell Williams, with rumored attendees among Kim Kardashian, Madonna and Stevie Wonder.
Basketball player LeBron James was set to be an honorary co-chair, but revealed on Monday afternoon that he would need to drop out due the MCL sprain he sustained in an April 30 playoff game.
So, without further ado, here’s a list of some of the biggest fashion flops from the one of the most important nights in style:
Can you say boring? Model Heidi Klum wore a plain black dress with white embroidery along the sides. The dress had a long train that she appeared to trip over multiple times
Lorde seemed to match the rainy day in New York City as she wore an understated, gray satin two-piece by Thom Browne. She draped a matching satin blazer over her shoulders in an effort to appear casual
Baring it all! Viral influencer Emma Chamberlain wore a revealing, suit-style, pinstriped dress with large cutouts at the waist and an open back. She completed the look with a pair of sheer gloves and small, round glasses
Gone goth? Author Jill Kargman went for a dramatic look on the red carpet, sporting a long, velvet, polka-dotted dress with puff sleeves and a white collar. She accessorized with a pair of short, sheer, polka-dot gloves
Boring in beige! Actor Tom Francis wore a tan suit with satin trim in a bland tan color, complete with a pair of black velvet loafers
A lot going on! Entrepreneur Wendi Murdoch showed up to the Met Gala steps in a matching, two-piece suit set custom made by Thom Browne that featured gold detailing on the jacket and skirt. On her feet, she wore dramatic, white leather lace-up boots and a gold hat that almost looked like it was mad from wire
Mismatched! Actress Maya Hawke wore a strapless, silky pink dress by Prada with a corset top and a long brown cape over the top. The tie on the front of the cape looked sloppy as she walked down the carpet
Venus Williams wore a tennis-inspired look designed for her by Lacoste, however, it was an ensemble that seemed more suited for the courts than the Met Gala
