The first Monday in May is a very special date in the fashion world, with the traditional celebration of the Met Gala. The steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York become a memorable red carpet as today’s most influential celebrities walk the steps. Among them, Shakira.
The Colombian singer, who was one of the last to arrive, appeared at the Costume Institute dinner wearing a spectacular pink dress, in which the fitted silhouette harmonizes with a voluminous detail.
In 2025, the theme of the gala and the exhibition is “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” which honors and explores the evolution of Black dandyism from the 18th century to the present day. It is inspired by the book “Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity” (2009), by guest curator Monica L. Miller.
