The Return of Black Tailoring | What to Expect at the 2025 Met Gala

The Met Gala 2025 will, as always, celebrate the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s spring exhibition, which this time will centre around the political and aesthetic constructs of Black dandyism. From the theme to the co-hosts, scroll down for everything you need to know about the Met Gala 2025. The Costume Institute’s spring 2025 exhibition – “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” – will take the Black dandy as its subject, examining the importance of clothing and style to the formation of Black identities in the Atlantic diaspora. The first Costume Institute exhibition since 2003’s “Men in Skirts” to focus exclusively on menswear, the show is inspired by co-curator Monica Miller’s 2009 book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity, in which she establishes Black dandyism as both an aesthetic and political construct. The exhibition will be arranged by 12 characteristics of Black dandyism, an organisational principle informed by a 1934 Zora Neale Hurston essay, “The Characteristics of Negro Expression”. The contemporary designers involved – including Grace Wales Bonner, Pharrell Williams and the late Virgil Abloh – Miller notes, are “well versed in the kinds of issues that we’re talking about in the exhibition, [issues] that are related to race and power, that are related to immigration, slavery, colonies and colonisation, empowerment, joy, aesthetics.” This year the co-chairs are Pharrell Williams, actor Colman Domingo, Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton, musician A$AP Rocky and Anna Wintour, with basketball star Lebron James acting as honorary co-chair.
