Met Gala 2025: Everything you need to know about fashion's biggest night out


The Met Gala returns Monday, May 5, drawing a bevy of A-list celebrities to the storied New York City museum for a night of exhibition-viewing, dinner and drinks.

Last year's verdant spectacle of fashion — which saw Elle Fanning's translucent bird gown, Tyla's sands-of-time ensemble and Lana Del Ray's thorny headpiece among the creative responses to the "Garden of Time" theme — will, for 2025, be followed by a lesson in exuberant suiting and Black style. The co-chairs, who host the Met Gala, are actor Colman Domingo, Formula 1 driver Lewis Hamilton, rapper A$AP Rocky and musician, record producer and Louis Vuitton men's creative director Pharrell Williams. Earlier this year, the Met announced it would revive a host committee for the evening, which will include athletes Simone Biles, Angel Reese and Sha'Carri Richardson; musicians Doechii, Tyla, Usher and Janelle Monáe; actors Ayo Edebiri and Regina King, fashion luminaries Grace Wales Bonner, Dapper Dan, Edward Enninful and Olivier Rousteing; and artists Rashid Johnson, Kara Walker and Jordan Casteel.
