At the 2025 Met Gala, many A-list celebs decided to ditch traditional trousers altogether. From tailored overcoats to sleek bodysuits, stars showed up in bold, one-piece wonders. This year’s theme, “Tailored For You,” encouraged personalized fashion—and clearly, some stars took that as “the fewer the clothes, the better.” The vibe? Think: high-fashion minimalism meets red carpet confidence.
Let’s take a closer look at some of the most talked-about no-pants looks of the night:
Pop darling Sabrina Carpenter kept it classy but quirky. She showed up in a warm coffee-toned bodysuit that might just be a cheeky reference to her hit song Espresso. Over it, she wore a matching full-sleeve waistcoat, giving off serious boardroom-glam vibes. Sabrina kept her iconic blonde locks flowing to soften the tailored edges. Simple, sharp, and oh-so-sweet.
K-pop queen Lisa from BLACKPINK turned heads in a stunning all-black ensemble straight from the Louis Vuitton runway. She wore a sleek bodysuit topped with a shimmering black blazer. To tie it all together, she wore chic LV stockings and styled her hair in a classy updo. It was sharp, sultry, and effortlessly elegant.
Oh, and in case that wasn’t exciting enough—her bandmate Jennie (also at the Gala) spilled the tea on a BLACKPINK reunion tour coming this July! “It’s BLACKPINK in your area, back again!” she hyped to host La La Anthony.
If there’s anyone who knows how to bring the extra, it’s Doja Cat. She went full glam in a glittering, pinstriped bodysuit by Marc Jacobs that screamed “fashion-forward feline.” The ocelot-print front and broad-shouldered wool jacket gave her a powerful yet playful silhouette. She told Vogue it was one of the most comfortable looks she’s ever worn to the Met. Honestly, she made not wearing pants look like the most natural thing in the world.
Jenna Ortega, best known for her role as Wednesday Addams, served serious gothic glam on the red carpet in a metallic outfit with moody makeup. But she truly leaned into the no-pants trend later during the Met Gala afterparty. There, she rocked a sleek black bodysuit—still keeping the edgy vibes but with a more laid-back twist. Dark, daring, and very on-brand.
Less was definitely more for Hailey Bieber, who may have worn the most minimal look of the evening. She strutted in with just an oversized overcoat and no pants in sight. Her look was polished with a soft, dewy makeup look and a statement diamond choker. According to her makeup artist Nina Park, the inspiration was “undone glamour”—that effortless beauty that makes you wonder, how does she look that good with so little going on?
