The 2025 Met Gala was a night to remember. Held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, the event made history by raising 31 million dollars for the Costume Institute. This was the highest amount the gala has ever raised in its 77-year history. As always, the blue carpet was filled with celebrities dressed in jaw-dropping outfits. But this year, it wasn’t just the fashion that stood out—there were plenty of surprises and iconic moments.
Rihanna shocked fans by revealing that she and A$AP Rocky are expecting their third child. The singer debuted her baby bump in a custom Marc Jacobs outfit, which included a pinstriped skirt and a cropped tuxedo jacket. She completed the look with a black hat, a polka-dot tie, and pointy Oxfords. The couple looked thrilled as they posed together for the cameras.
Hailey Bieber also grabbed attention by attending the gala alone. Her husband, Justin Bieber, was noticeably absent as he was reportedly on a snowboarding trip with friends. Hailey wore a black Saint Laurent blazer minidress and styled her hair in soft waves. Her solo appearance fueled rumors that the couple may be going through a rough patch, especially with ongoing concerns about Justin’s health and behavior.
Andre 3000 made one of the most unusual fashion statements of the night. The rapper wore an actual piano on his back as part of his outfit. The bold choice matched his latest project, a collection of instrumental “piano sketches.” His appearance was one of the most talked-about of the evening.
British actor Damon Idris surprised everyone with a dramatic outfit reveal. He showed up wearing a custom Tommy Hilfiger racing suit and a helmet covered in over 20,000 Swarovski crystals. Underneath, he revealed a sharp red suit, also designed by Tommy Hilfiger. His look combined glamor, drama, and a touch of humor.
Diana Ross made a long-awaited return to the Met Gala after 22 years. The legendary singer looked radiant in a white gown decorated with crystals, beads, and a feather trim. Her enormous feathered hat and an 18-foot train wowed the crowd and proved that her sense of style is as strong as ever.
