The first Monday in May once again transformed New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art into fashion's most anticipated showcase. This year's Met Gala celebrated the exhibition "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style", exploring the intersection of clothing, identity, and Black cultural expression throughout the African diaspora, with particular focus on Black dandyism.

The evening's dress code, "Tailored for You", inspired a range of interpretations among attendees. While black and white ensembles dominated the red carpet, several celebrities managed to stand out with distinctive styling choices.

Among the most notable appearances was André 3000, who arrived carrying a garbage bag while balancing a piano on his shoulders. Rihanna, pregnant with her third child, commanded attention, while Teyana Taylor wore a creation by costume designer Ruth E. Carter featuring subtle references to her song "Rose In Harlem".

A$AP Rocky, Lewis Hamilton, Pharrell Williams, Bad Bunny, Doechii, and Zendaya each made strong impressions with their interpretations of the evening's theme.

The event also marked Moncler's first Met Gala participation. Edward Enninful collaborated with Remo Ruffini to assemble an exclusive group of brand associates and celebrities including Serena Williams, Alicia Keys, Swizz Beatz, Vittoria Ceretti, Fei Fei Sun, Colin Kaepernick, and Nessa Diab. Their custom attire featured traditional tailoring reimagined through dramatic silhouettes and padding, inspired by elements previewed during Moncler's "City of Genius" presentation in Shanghai.
