On Monday( May 5th) the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating ''Superfine: Tailoring Black Style'' was held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City and below are a some of the that wore THOM BROWNE.
Zoe Saldana stepped out of her style comfort zone and she perfectly nailed the theme. Her tuxedo dress featured 2,700,000 white bugle beads that tied together with an oversized bow cascading to the ground that flowed into a train. The structure and the tailoring really elevated the appeal of her overall look.
Demi Moore's look was all about the tie which is the focal point of the suit. Her black & white sculpted tie dress featured over 1,400,000 beads, including 222,000 pieces of black rectangle sequins, 1,093,500 pieces of shiny black bugle beads, and 103,500 pieces of black cut beads. I get the idea behind her look and TB is really great at executing styles like this. It was a clever take on the theme.
Janelle Monae is known for rocking suits and I knew her execution of the theme would be spectacular. Her look was brought to life in collaboration with Oscar winner costume designer Paul Tazewll. The thirties-inspired, oversized trompe l’oeil suit featured a deconstructed bi-color sportcoat and skirt in pinstripe suiting underneath. This was wow moment and perfectly done.
Nicki Minaj wore a navy asymmetrical cocoon jacket which was embroidered with a running pinstripe stitch with a deconstructed take on the dandy pinstripe suit. Appliquéd hand-cut florals in mixed fabrics, and golden spools was handcrafted in NYC. This is a great look, but something different should have been done so that she didn't have to hold her cleavage while posing.
Walter Goggins wore a an ‘inside-out’ overcoat, with a pleated skirt back detail in a combination of tonal wool suiting, black double duchess silk and a exposed canvas, which finished with external silk and cotton-covered shoulder pads and tailoring hand stitches. He was having fun with look, and rightfully on theme.
