Jerry Lorenzo didn't know if he would participate in this year's Met Gala. The word "dandy" didn't resonate with him, and he was cautious about the theme, "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.""I never heard of the word 'dandy,' to be honest. What is Black style?

The Met Gala is one of the most closely watched red carpets of the year, and this year's is no exception. The 2025 Met Gala celebrates the new Costume Institute exhibition "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style," with a dress code of "Tailored for You." This year's theme is inspired by guest curator Monica L. Miller's 2009 book, "Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity," and marks the museum's fashion exhibit focused on menswear since 2003.
