(Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue) The face card, as the kids say, never declines. After those few weird years where there was NO Marc Jacobs on the Met carpet, it's good to have him back. ## Rihanna in custom Marc Jacobs ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213639147-1746506910.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Rihanna attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by TheStewartofNY/Getty Images) I did joke that it would be TIMELY for Rihanna to re-wear her Pope costume from the Catholic Imagination Met Gala, if perhaps not tasteful, nor on theme. I do think she looks totally charming in this. (Everyone on the internet was like, ANOTHER BABY??? CONGRATS AND ALL BUT WE'RE NEVER GETTING A NEW ALBUM and I do think Rihanna is not interested in making a new album at the moment.) ## Sarah Snook in An Only Child ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213056650-1746506960.jpg) Sarah Snook at The 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York, New York. (Photo by Gilbert Flores/Variety via Getty Images) It's hard to tell in this pic, but this is pants with an overskirt and it's cool on her. She should dress like this all the time. It's like...Victorian Bitch and I mean that SO POSITIVELY. ## Lisa in Louis Vuitton ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213636244-1746506849.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Lisa attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Theo Wargo/FilmMagic) Louis Vuitton once again kinda phones it in if it's not custom. She's a huge star coming off an appearance in one of the most popular TV dramas, she deserved something more thoughtful. AND WAIT EDIT HOLD THE PHONE: There is a developing story that...I truly cannot believe I am typing this....[this leotard has lace with faces embroidered on it and one of them might be that of Rosa Parks](https://people.com/met-gala-2025-did-louis-vuitton-embroider-rosa-parks-on-lisa-underwear-11728828?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)? No. Surely they didn't embroidered Rosa Parks on her undies. Right? That seems disrespectful. How am I even typing these words. Surely it's just A face or the face of someone else! (I read another theory that it's meant to be a generic "granny" because these are granny panties.) That would be wild. That can't be right. Right? Anyway: Developing story. ## Sydney Sweeney in custom Miu Miu ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213036949-1746506593.jpg) Sydney Sweeney at The 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York, New York. (Photo by Gilbert Flores/Variety via Getty Images) I had to do some research to get the story here; this is inspired by a Kim Novak gown, which Sydney posted on her Instagram. In her interview, she kept talking about "a beautiful story" and I was like WHAT STORY IS THIS. Anyway: [She is starring as Kim Novak in a film Colman Domingo is directing about Novak's doomed affair with Sammy Davis Jr](https://people.com/2025-met-gala-sydney-sweeney-wears-gown-inspired-by-kim-novak-11717634?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io), which I wish she had explained better because I'm here for this. She looks pretty! ## Nicole Kidman in Balenciaga ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213616712-1746506770.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Nicole Kidman attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue) Nicole looks nice and gave a very sweet and heartfelt interview and said this look "was inspired in support of the gorgeous dandies and the women that honored them and supported them or protected them." Nicole honestly seems like a very nice person. This is not that memorable but it is sweet. ## Nicole Kidman in Balenciaga ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213104982-1746506729.jpg) US-Australian actress Nicole Kidman arrives for the 2025 Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 5, 2025, in New York. The Gala raises money for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute. The 2025 Met Gala is themed "Tailored for You," aligning with the Costume Institute's exhibition, "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style," set to open to the public on May 10\. (Photo by Angela WEISS / AFP) (Photo by ANGELA WEISS/AFP via Getty Images) I LOVE the short cut on her and I hope she keeps it. (This may be a wig.) Also great: The diamonds. ## Mona Patel in Thom Browne ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213062068-1746506604.jpg) Mona Patel at The 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York, New York. (Photo by Michael Buckner/Penske Media via Getty Images) This had [a wild metal spine built into it](https://www.instagram.com/p/DJSeyQlSZ49/?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). It also fits her PERFECTLY. ## Dua Lip in Chanel ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213636962-1746506858.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Dua Lipa attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by John Shearer/WireImage) My take on this is my take on Chanel all the time now, namely, "...I guess so?" ## Callum Turner, Dua Lipa ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213067690-1746506613.jpg) Callum Turner, Dua Lipa at The 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York, New York. (Photo by Gilbert Flores/Variety via Getty Images) It's better without the cape. ## Karlie Kloss in custom Luar ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213067825-1746506622.jpg) Karlie Kloss at The 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York, New York. (Photo by Gilbert Flores/Variety via Getty Images) One of my favorite things about this particular Met Gala is how many smaller and newer labels are worn. Luar has been around for a while -- I believe they have a piece in the exhibit! -- but this is a big moment for them. This is so much more interesting than having 15 people in Louis Vuitton. ## Miley Cyrus in Alaia ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213072304-1746506632.jpg) US singer-songwriter Miley Cyrus arrives for the 2025 Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 5, 2025, in New York. The Gala raises money for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute. The 2025 Met Gala is themed "Tailored for You," aligning with the Costume Institute's exhibition, "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style," set to open to the public on May 10\. (Photo by Angela WEISS / AFP) (Photo by ANGELA WEISS/AFP via Getty Images) Miley ALSO gave a really good interview -- the interviews were good this year -- where she said, “I think of these gowns as armor, a representation of power and strength," and this certainly reflects that. ## Issa Rae in Ozwald Boateng ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213092597-1746506643.jpg) Issa Rae at The 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York, New York. (Photo by Michael Buckner/Penske Media via Getty Images) I love her and she looks really cool in this. ## Charli XCX in custom Ann Demeulemeester ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213097286-1746506654.jpg) Charli XCX attending the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute Benefit Gala 2025 in New York, USA. Picture date: Monday May 5, 2025\. (Photo by Matt Crossick/PA Images via Getty Images) Hey look, it's a goth senior yearbook portrait! (WHY she is posing like this is beyond me.) ## Charli XCX in custom Ann Demeulemeester ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213100416-1746506681.jpg) Charli XCX at The 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York, New York. (Photo by Gilbert Flores/Variety via Getty Images) With apologies to the iconic Demeulemeester, I do not think this worked. When people are posting Moira Rose gifs about your look on Insta... ## Kim Kardashian in Chrome Hearts ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213636095-1746506840.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Kim Kardashian attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Theo Wargo/FilmMagic) I don't hate this -- her necklace is MAJOR-- but that hat seems hard to see around. ## Kim Kardashian in Chrome Hearts ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213100359-1746506671.jpg) Kim Kardashian at The 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" held at The Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York, New York. (Photo by Lexie Moreland/WWD via Getty Images) I honestly just think we should all be happy when she's not wearing vintage historical garments with only vague permission. ## Miranda Kerr in Dior ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213100720-1746506702.jpg) Miranda Kerr at The 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York, New York. (Photo by Gilbert Flores/Variety via Getty Images) I mean, it's pretty! It is in fact Tailored For Her. ## Bebe Rexha in Siriano ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213104809-1746506716.jpg) US singer Bebe Rexha arrives for the 2025 Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 5, 2025, in New York. The Gala raises money for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute.

(Photo by ANGELA WEISS / AFP) (Photo by ANGELA WEISS/AFP via Getty Images) This leaves me a little cold. It's fine -- but it feels like we've seen it? ## Suki Waterhouse in Michael Kors ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213107716-1746506740.jpg) British singer-songwriter and actress Suki Waterhouse arrives for the 2025 Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 5, 2025, in New York. The Gala raises money for the Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute. The 2025 Met Gala is themed "Tailored for You," aligning with the Costume Institute's exhibition, "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style," set to open to the public on May 10\. (Photo by Angela WEISS / AFP) (Photo by ANGELA WEISS/AFP via Getty Images) I would NOT have guessed this is Kors although now that I know it, it seems obvious. I didn't care for it on the livefeed but I actually think it photographs on her really well. ## Suki Waterhouse in Michael Kors ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213637859-1746506878.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Suki Waterhouse attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by John Shearer/WireImage) This is HIGH LEVEL model hair work. She made her own wind! ## Rosé in YSL ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213622527-1746506780.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Rosé attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Savion Washington/Getty Images) YSL also phoned it in. She even sort of just trailed off when talking about this on the livefeed. I get it. It's.... ## Halle Berry in LaQuan Smith ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213623847-1746506804.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Halle Berry attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue) HALLE MIDDLE NAME BERRY! I DON'T KNOW! LaQuan said he looked to Grace Jones and Josephine Baker for inspiration and wanted his designs to be "elegant" and "powerful." This is quite bold! (I do think Halle Berry would have looked RAD going Full Grace Jones.) ## Halle Berry in LaQuan Smith ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213623678-1746506789.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Halle Berry attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Kevin Mazur/MG25/Kevin Mazur/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue) I actually like it better without the jacket, to my surprise? The bareness feels more intentional. ## Shah Rukh Khan ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213633106-1746506822.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Shah Rukh Khan attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Dia Dipasupil/Getty Images) He looks very cool. The livestream said he's the first male Bollywood actor to come to the Met Gala, which seems insane to me! It's 2025! ## Aimee Lou Wood in Ahluwalia ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213635915-1746506831.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Aimee Lou Wood attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by John Shearer/WireImage) I love that smaller and less-known brands are getting this spotlight. [This is a great piece in Vogue that talks about this look](https://www.vogue.com/article/aimee-lou-wood-met-gala-2025?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io). It's meant to be "nodding to the distinctive elegance of the Congolese Sapeur," and now that I know that, I can see it. (I wish everyone came with an info sheet!) ## Jeremy Allen White ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213637663-1746506869.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Jeremy Allen White attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by John Shearer/WireImage) This is a perfectly reasonable suit. ## Tomeeka Robyn Bracy, Stevie Wonder and Kailand Morris, in custom Sergio Hudson ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213638583-1746506890.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: (L-R) Tomeeka Robyn Bracy, Stevie Wonder and Kailand Morris attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by John Shearer/WireImage) The Wonder family looks...wonderful. SORRY, IT'S THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT. I could not resist. ## Louis Partridge ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213638943-1746506901.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Louis Partridge attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by John Shearer/WireImage) More spats! ## Kelvin Harrison Jr. ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213645219-1746506931.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: (Exclusive Coverage) Kelvin Harrison Jr. attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Cindy Ord/MG25/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue) This pocket square is working for me. ## Keith Powers ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213072160-1746506970.jpg) Keith Powers at The 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York, New York. (Photo by Michael Buckner/Penske Media via Getty Images) Fabulous. ## Saquon Barkley ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213599365-1746506982.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Saquon Barkley attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue) BORING, SAQUON!!! ## Tramell Tillman ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213602168-1746507001.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Tramell Tillman attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Michael Loccisano/GA/The Hollywood Reporter via Getty Images) NOT boring! Let's all do some Defiant Jazz to celebrate. ## Alex Newell ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213600674-1746506991.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Alex Newell attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue) I just realized this might be green. But whatever! She looks nice. ## Sadie Sink in custom Prada ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213603612-1746507011.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Sadie Sink attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by John Shearer/WireImage) This is gorgeous and as it is custom, it IS Tailored For You. But it maybe feels a little...Victorian, for the evening? ## Heidi Klum in Guram Gvasalia of Vetements ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213609996-1746507020.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: (Exclusive Coverage) Heidi Klum attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Cindy Ord/MG25/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue) I enjoy it when Heidi reminds us all that she can absolutely show up to an event and look nice and unremarkable (other than being gorgeous). ## Jennie in Chanel ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213633335-1746507029.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Jennie attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue) Technically, I do love this. But I wish Chanel had given her a better line than having her wax poetic about the Coco Chanel of the 1930s. Can we please stop venerating this woman, who although chic and also very influential, was also pretty problematic? It's fascinating to me how much this brand clings to her mystique -- I don't even think they need it anymore! ## Noah Lyles in Thom Browne ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213641248-1746512321.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Noah Lyles attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Theo Wargo/FilmMagic) This man truly could not have more charisma. ## Jalen Hurts ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213635897-1746507039.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: Jalen Hurts attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City. (Photo by Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty Images for The Met Museum/Vogue) This man...is handsome. This photo (accidentally) makes him look like he's come down from heaven to smile at us all. ## Jeff Goldblum in custom Wales Bonner ![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2025/05/GettyImages-2213628929-1746506813.jpg) NEW YORK, NEW YORK - MAY 05: (Exclusive Coverage) Jeff Goldblum attends the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" at Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 05, 2025 in New York City.
