The 2025 Met Gala at the Metropolitan Museum of Art focused on the theme "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style", celebrating Black dandy fashion and identity. Despite its significance, several major stars opted out this year, including Taylor Swift and Jennifer Lopez, citing work commitments. Swift has not attended since 2016, while Lopez was busy filming her new movie. Notable absences like Blake Lively, Naomi Campbell, and Timothée Chalamet drew attention, with Campbell expressing regret over her absence on social media, reinforcing the gala's impact in the fashion world even amid celebrity drops.
"This year's theme celebrated the styles of black dandy men and the importance of clothing in style to the formation of Black identities in the Atlantic diaspora."
"Campbell went on to acknowledge she was 'honored' to be invited, but nonetheless 'regretfully cannot make it.'"
