What’s the theme of the 2025 Meta Gala?
The 2025 Met Gala’s theme is Superfine: Tailoring Black Style which marks a historic moment in fashion, placing Black dandyism and menswear at the forefront. This theme celebrates the rich legacy of Black sartorial elegance, from the 18th century to contemporary interpretations, highlighting how fashion serves as a powerful form of self-expression and cultural identity.
The exhibition, inspired by Monica L. Miller’s seminal work, delves into the evolution of the Black dandy, illustrating how clothing has been instrumental in shaping Black identities across the Atlantic diaspora. It underscores the importance of fashion as both an art form and a statement of resistance and pride.
