This year’s Met Gala embraced a powerful and historically rich theme — “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style”. It paid tribute to the legacy of Black dandyism, sharp silhouettes, and the cultural force of personal style as rebellion.
The dress code “Tailored for You” invited guests to explore gender-neutral suiting, elevated silhouettes, and personalized storytelling through fashion. Our team at Renew.Style selected the 10 most striking looks that honored the theme with innovation, flair, and detail.
Renew.Style’s Top 10 Best Looks of Met Gala 2025
1. Angèle in Chanel
A perfect balance of soft romance and edgy rebellion. Angèle stunned in a lilac corset dress with layered chains, a quilted jacket hanging off her shoulders, fishnet tights, and bold Chanel accessories. A punk reinterpretation of classic femininity — confident, cool, and sharply styled.
2. A$AP Rocky
Exuding modern dandy energy, A$AP Rocky showcased a refined layered tuxedo look accessorized with a walking cane, brooches, and black sunglasses. His attention to detail — from slicked hair to silver accents — elevated traditional tailoring into streetwise sophistication.
3. Christian Latchman
In a pleated white suit with an elegant trailing train, Christian fused masculinity with softness. The black shirt and oversized lapels made it strong, while the flowing detail introduced motion and grace. A visionary take on the classic tux — poetic and gender-fluid.
4. Damson Idris
A rich burgundy three-piece suit gave us ‘70s retro soul with a modern twist. He paired it with a bedazzled helmet bag, sleek loafers, and chain accessories — making the look both playful and sharply styled. A masterclass in color and charisma.
5. Pharrell Williams
As co-chair of the event, Pharrell kept it clean and quietly bold in a white textured double-breasted blazer and tailored black flared trousers. Always a pioneer of minimalist cool, he let the cut do the talking — sharp, unbothered, and iconic.
6. Imaan Hammam
A white power suit with exaggerated proportions and a nipped-in waist gave Imaan a commanding silhouette. Topped with a feathered fascinator, she embodied a couture noir heroine. Her dotted tie and cane added a theatrical dandy touch.
7. Jennie (BLACKPINK)
Jennie reinvented Chanel with a breathtaking black-and-white structured look. Featuring an off-shoulder neckline, pearl details, a waist-hugging skirt over slim pants, and a round hat — it was a bold nod to Coco with a touch of K-fashion elegance.
8. Rihanna
Rihanna stole the show again — pregnant and powerful in a custom pinstriped corset dress with a thigh-high slit, exaggerated peplum hips, and a wide-brimmed hat. With a polka dot cravat and lace-up heels, this look was pure fashion architecture with attitude.
9. Sydney Sweeney
Old Hollywood glamour met gothic edge in this glittering black mermaid gown with a sculpted silhouette and dramatic neckline. Her hair, makeup, and golden floral choker completed the look — timeless and sultry with a touch of modern boldness.
10. Tyla
Tyla delivered minimalist drama in a white column gown with thin vertical stripes and an off-shoulder neckline. The oversized coat draped behind her created volume and contrast, while her golden curls brought vintage glamour to the red carpet.
Final Thoughts by Renew.Style
Met Gala 2025 was not just a red carpet — it was a runway of cultural homage, creative rebellion, and personal storytelling through tailoring. This year's best looks prove that fashion is not just about dressing up, but about standing out with purpose and poise.
