The 2025 Met Gala is set to be a historic night in fashion, highlighting Black designers and menswear like never before.

On Monday (May 5), the biggest names in Hollywood will gather at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, dressing to impress for the Costume Institute's annual fundraiser.

This year's theme, "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style," will center around Black dandyism, a concept rooted in resistance, reinvention, and the assertion of identity through fashion.

"Historically, the term 'dandy' was used to describe someone—often a man—who is extremely devoted to style and approaches it as a discipline," the Met said in its theme description. "Dandyism was initially imposed on Black men in 18th-century Europe as the Atlantic slave trade and an emerging culture of consumerism created a trend of fashionably dressed, or dandified, servants."

"Dandyism offered Black people an opportunity to use clothing, gesture, irony, and wit to transform their given identities and imagine new ways of embodying political and social possibilities," the exhibit's description adds.

Curator Monica Miller, author of "Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity," offered the inspiration behind this year's theme.

"Black style is really related to thinking about how fashion and power connect," Miller previously said.

The 2025 dress code, "Tailored for You," invites the Met's star-studded lineup to interpret dandyism through tailoring, precise cuts, lush fabrics, and personal style.

Anna Wintour will lead the event along with a historic panel of co-chairs, including Pharrell Williams, Lewis Hamilton, Colman Domingo, A$AP Rocky. LeBron James is serving as the Met Gala's honorary chair, while the anticipated guest list includes the likes of Simone Biles, Angel Reese, Spike Jonze, Regina King, Audra McDonald, Jeremy Pope, Janelle Monáe, Andre 3000, and more.
