On May 5, Hollywood and Bollywood celebrities turned up the glam at the MET Gala 2025, making head-turning appearances on fashion's biggest night. This year's theme,  "Tailored for You," marked the opening of the Met's Costume Institute exhibition Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, which celebrates the influence of Black tailoring and dandyism in fashion history.

Let's take a look at who wore what! While some celebrities nailed the theme with their tailored and thoughtful ensembles, others seemed to miss the brief entirely, opting for over-the-top outfits that felt more like costume party looks than tributes to the evening's sartorial message.

Kardashian sisters slay and how! But did they understand the assignment?

Kim Kardashian went bold in a croc-embossed leather ensemble by LA-based brand Chrome Hearts. The all-black look featured a fitted leather top and skirt, elevated with diamond necklaces and two strands of pearls.

Kendall Jenner walked the carpet alongside Hailey Bieber in a long grey gown with a structured blazer-style bodice. Her sister, Kylie Jenner, opted for a floor-length black-and-gray gown with a sheer midsection, styling her hair in a sleek bun.

Demi Moore stood out in a sculptural black-and-white striped sequin gown by Thom Browne, adding a dramatic twist with a men's tie.

Rihanna made a striking return to the Met steps in custom Marc Jacobs, debuting her pregnancy alongside co-chair of the evening A$AP Rocky. She flaunted her baby bump with signature flair.
