The biggest night in fashion, this year's star-studded Met Gala delivered elevated style at every turn, all honed to the dress code: Tailored for You and marking the opening of the 2025 exhibition: Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.
Explore the night’s most coveted looks, and the Karen Millen pieces to recreate them.
Zendaya captivated in a head-to-toe ivory three-piece suit, complete with flared trousers, a structured blazer, waistcoat and an exaggerated wide-brimmed hat. The choice of tone-on-tone layers lent softness to the sharply defined tailoring. Reimagine this look with a structured tailored blazer in ivory, and high-waisted flare trousers, finished with a wide brim hat.
Lupita Nyong’o epitomised elegance in an icy blue ensemble that melded classic tailoring with dramatic detail. Her structured double-breasted suit was elevated with a flowing chiffon cape, a co-ordinating blouse and a statement rosette at the shoulder, finished with a matching boater hat. To emulate this style, consider a sharply tailored pastel trouser suit paired with statement accessories.
Sabrina Carpenter brought a subversive twist to suiting with her oxblood pinstripe bodysuit-blazer hybrid. The sharply cut tailoring was given a touch of drama with the floor-sweeping train. To channel this aesthetic for a more day-to-day look, opt for a sharply cut cropped blazer or bustier jacket styled with sleek accessories.
Rihanna embraced exaggerated tailoring in a black cropped jacket, bustier bodysuit and a pinstripe tailored skirt with an elongated train, finished with a sculptural hat. Emulate this high-impact silhouette with a pinstripe piece, paired with a tailored blazer and statement accessories.
Priyanka Chopra delivered refined glamour in a tailored white dress and blazer set, patterned in bold black polka dots. The cinched waist, structured peplum and long-line pencil skirt created an hourglass silhouette that was timeless yet contemporary. Styled with a wide-brimmed hat, sleek black gloves and a statement emerald necklace, the ensemble balanced playful print with formal finesse. Recreate the look with a polka dot pencil dress, styled with pointed courts and bold jewellery.
