Met Gala 2025: Date & Hosts
The 2025 edition of Met Gala will be held on May 5, 2025, which is the first Monday of the month of May this year.

Met Gala 2025: Theme & Dress Code
The Metropolitan Museum of Art’s spring exhibition Superfine: Tailoring Black Style and the dress code Tailored for You define the theme of the 2025 edition. The exhibition focuses on several different characteristics, such as ownership, presence, disguise, freedom, champion, heritage, beauty, and cosmopolitanism. The theme is inherently focused on menswear designs.
Each year, the Met Ball is hosted at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, with a new carpet theme to match the event. Around 450 guests, including actors, models, influencers, and moguls, attend the grand event wearing the most complex and well-made designs. The trending names of Hollywood and the music industry, as well as media and sports icons, are seen on the red carpet.
Stars like Rihanna, Zendaya, Nicki Minaj, Katy Perry, Taylor Swift, Kylie Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Sabrina Carpenter, Priyanka Chopra, Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Hailey Bieber, Selena Gomez, and more have previously stunned fans with their unique looks. The running issue when it comes to the Met Ball is the men’s inability to follow the theme as discussed each year.
Fans often debate how most male stars disappoint on the red carpet by putting little to no effort into their looks. Following the theme is far off for many of them, who most often simply wear a black tux. It is to be seen what looks this year’s male-inclined theme will result in.
