The 2025 Met Gala brought tailoring into focus: Zendaya wore Louis Vuitton, Demi Moore wore Thom Browne, and Cynthia Erivo wore Givenchy with Bucherer fine jewellery. Their looks appeared on the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s steps on May 5, as guests interpreted the dress code “Tailored For You.”
Why tailoring defined the 2025 Met Gala
The gala celebrated the Costume Institute exhibition Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, and its dress code was “Tailored For You.” Vogue called the phrase “purposefully designed to provide guidance and invite creative interpretation.” Its gallery described a range of responses to the exhibition’s focus on menswear and suiting, from classic, sleek tailoring to theatrical and avant-garde looks. See Vogue’s 2025 Met Gala gallery.
The Associated Press reported that the exhibition was the first Met Gala theme to focus exclusively on Black designers and the first in more than 20 years to center menswear. AP also reported that the 2025 gala raised $31 million for the Costume Institute. Read the Associated Press event report.
Zendaya in Louis Vuitton
Vogue’s gallery credits Zendaya’s look to Louis Vuitton. The sharp white tailoring and wide-brimmed hat also connect to a specific screen reference: Vogue’s feature on the night’s historical inspirations says the look evoked Tracy Chambers, Diana Ross’s character in the 1975 film Mahogany. Vogue reports that Anna Sawai and Kerry Washington shared the reference. Read Vogue’s feature on historical references.
#1 Best Overall
Demi Moore in Thom Browne
Vogue and British Vogue credit Demi Moore’s look to Thom Browne. Vogue highlighted a loop extending above her head as an abstract-hat element, making the headwear part of the look’s sculptural silhouette. See Vogue’s gallery and British Vogue’s red-carpet gallery.
Cynthia Erivo in Givenchy
British Vogue credits Cynthia Erivo’s look to Givenchy and her fine jewellery to Bucherer. The gallery’s caption establishes those credits; it does not specify garment construction, price, or retail availability. See British Vogue’s Met Gala gallery.

Three looks, three ways into the dress code
| Attendee | Designer credit | Visible or reported detail | Documented context |
|---|---|---|---|
| Zendaya | Louis Vuitton (Vogue) | Sharp white tailoring and a wide-brimmed hat | Vogue connected the look to Tracy Chambers in Mahogany. |
| Demi Moore | Thom Browne (Vogue and British Vogue) | A loop extending above her head, described by Vogue as an abstract-hat element | The sculptural headwear offered a theatrical take on tailoring. |
| Cynthia Erivo | Givenchy; Bucherer fine jewellery (British Vogue) | Designer and jewellery credits are given in the gallery caption | The caption does not establish a further historical reference. |
These credits and descriptions distinguish captioned information from interpretation. They identify the designers and, in Zendaya’s case, a reported film reference; they do not establish a look’s construction details or whether an item can be bought.
