Met Gala 2025 will stun the globe this evening, May 5, at New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art, with a red carpet that will be as daring and impactful as ever. This year's theme, "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style," celebrates Black Dandyism-a phenomenon where elegant dressing is a performance of identity, pride, and resistance. Inspired by Monica L. Miller's groundbreaking book "Slaves to Fashion," the Costume Institute's exhibition opens to the public on May 10, running to October 26.

The official dress code, "Tailored for You," invites visitors to combine heritage, history, and contemporary creativity into their wardrobe, and therefore this issue is a celebration of menswear and cultural storytelling.

While the guest list is a secret, the buzz is real with confirmed sightings of international legends such as Simone Biles, Usher, Ayo Edebiri, Janelle Monáe, and Dapper Dan. Shah Rukh Khan, the largest Bollywood superstar, makes his long-awaited Met Gala entry in a bespoke Sabyasachi look, with Kiara Advani and Diljit Dosanjh of India, marking India's increasing presence on the international fashion stage.

The night will be co-chaired by Pharrell Williams, A$AP Rocky, Lewis Hamilton, Colman Domingo, and Anna Wintour, with honorary chair support coming from LeBron James. Teyana Taylor, La La Anthony, and Ego Nwodim will take on hosting duties for the livestream, adding a touch of style and entertainment to the proceedings of the night.

For fans who want to witness the drama, the red carpet live stream starts at 6:00 p.m. ET (3:30 a.m. IST, May 6 in India) on the Vogue site and YouTube, giving fashion fans around the globe a front-row seat to fashion's most celebrated night. With a record-setting $31 million already donated to the Costume Institute, Met Gala 2025 is not merely a fashion party, but also a strong cultural, identity, and philanthropy statement.
