The Metropolitan Museum of Art has announced that the 2025 Met Gala will focus on Black style with the theme 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style', inspired by Monica L. Miller's book, 'Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity'. This exhibition will explore the historical and contemporary significance of Black dandyism through garments, paintings, and photographs, tracing its evolution from the 18th century to the present. While many fashion fans are excited about the theme, concerns have been raised regarding cultural appropriation and the representation of Black designers at the event. Commenters have emphasized the importance of honoring Black creatives and ensuring that the guest list reflects the theme. Notable figures including Colman Domingo and Anna Wintour will serve as co-chairs for the gala, making it a historic event focused on menswear. The exhibition will be open from May 6 to October 26, 2025.
