Suki Waterhouse is celebrating the first Monday in May.
The singer has made her grand return to New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. Ascending the carpeted steps for the 2025 Met Gala, Waterhouse looked utterly glamorous in a Michael Kors creation: a deconstructed black tuxedo dress with a backless silhouette, a thigh-high leg slit, and a dramatically long and skinny train. She zhuzhed up the classic look with a diamond necklace, a black clutch, and satin pumps.
The dress code for this year’s Met Gala is “Tailored for You,” which is derived from the Costume Institute’s exhibition theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.” The Institute developed the theme by taking inspiration from Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity, a 2009 book by Barnard College professor Monica L. Miller.
“I feel that the show itself marks a really important step in our commitment to diversifying our exhibitions and collections, as well as redressing some of the historical biases within our curatorial practice,” head curator Andrew Bolton said. “It’s very much about making fashion at the Met more of a gateway to access and inclusivity.”
This is the first exhibition since 2003 that will be solely focused on menswear. Appropriately, Pharrell Williams, Colman Domingo, A$AP Rocky, and Lewis Hamilton have been appointed as co-chairs.
Waterhouse last attended the Met Gala in 2023 with boyfriend Robert Pattinson. At the time, she looked elegant in a transparent Fendi dress stitched with colorful floral embroidery, while Pattinson looked suave in a classic navy blue tux designed by Dior Men.
