On the Scene at the 2025 MET Gala: Rihanna Debuts Baby Bump in a Black Marc Jacobs Look, Teyana Taylor Stuns in a Red & Grey Ruthe Carter Suit, Kim Kardashian Looks Sizzling Hot in a Leather Chrome Hearts Set, and Claire Sulmers Owns the Carpet in a Red Custom Swanky Jerry Design + More!

Powerful, audacious and absolutely iconic, the 2025 MET Gala, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” kicked off yesterday evening at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and was unforgettable.

Taking a page out of the late fashion extraordinaire , Andre Leon Talley fashion book, the theme spotlighted Black dandyism, a cultural movement highlighting black identity through fashion and style to communicate autonomy, resistance, and agency.

For the history making moment, stars stepped into the spotlight donning the sharpest tailored suiting, with bold brim hats and polished shoes while paying homage to black creativity and influence.

Some of the dandiest men of the evening included Dapper Dan, Coleman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton and Bad Bunny. The event, which perhaps was the most diverse yet, raised a record-breaking 31-million in fundraising, proving that when you give everyone a seat at the table, historic things can happen.

Our Fashion Bomb CEO, Claire Sulmers was on the MET Gala carpet in one of the hottest red suits designed by Swanky Jerry, as she interviewed celebs like Jodie Smith, Angela Bassett, Dwayne Wade, Issa Rae, and Simone Biles.

With Rihanna revealing her third pregnancy in an avant-garde Marc Jacobs look, and Teyana Taylor serving layers of black storytelling in a grey and red custom Ruthe Carter suit, this will undoubtedly be one of the most talked about MET Gala’s throughout the ages.

In addition to the legendary Diana Ross, who stole the show as she arrived in a white over-the-top Eleven Sixteen gown.

Celebrities made a grand entrance at the MET Gala, and took calculated risks in the most brilliant bespoke garments. Ahead, see all the stars who illuminated on the carpet, and served as a catalyst for inspiration in multidimensional ways.
