As the biggest celebrities in entertainment, fashion and music hit the Met Gala 2025 red carpet, it’s clear that everyone understood the assignment. And that’s especially true for the men in attendance!
Met Gala 2025: A Theme Perfect for Male Looks
This year’s theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, is the perfect platform for the men on the carpet to truly shine. The first time the event has focused on male fashion since 2003, this year’s theme focuses on Black Dandyism and the history and cultural impact of Black fashion.
With the gala dress code, “Tailored for You,” emphasizing menswear, tailoring and suiting, Met Gala 2025 is truly the perfect storm for iconic men‘s fashion and beauty. We expected the men on the carpet to wow us, and we were not disappointed!
