Almost entirely focused on menswear, with a focus on Black dandyism, the museum's impending exhibit served as the inspiration for the 2025 Met Gala's theme.
Vogue claimed that the “Tailored for You” event was purposefully designed to provide guidance and incite creative interpretation, which meant that attendees should be dressed in suits that express their personal preferences and sense of style.
The Met Gala has been shrouded in mystery beyond the star-studded red carpet. Celebrities are not allowed to take their phones inside, and minimal photos are allowed inside the Met during the gala.
