The 2025 Met Gala swooped in with a beauty bang, celebrating the African diaspora with the theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” honoring Black dandyism and its cultural history. Co-chaired by Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, and Pharrell Williams, the event featured many of our favorite celebrities embracing extravagant looks and creative hairdos that blended historical and cultural influences with contemporary glamour.

Notable attendees included Tracee Ellis Ross, who blessed us with a custom Marc Jacobs whimsical ensemble, her mother, Diana Ross, who captivated in a Ugo Mozie gown with an 18-foot train embroidered with the names of her children and grandchildren, and, of course, Zendaya did not come to play in a white Louis Vuitton three-piece suit and matching floppy hat that was a vintage moment.

Halle Berry returned after a seven-year hiatus, serving body in a sheer, black-striped gown by LaQuan Smith, paired with a Cartier snow leopard diamond necklace. From Megan Thee Stallion to Rihanna and Cardi B, the stars snapped on the red carpet. Their regalia was on point, and their alluring hairstyles and gorgeous makeup made compelling statements.
