Bold statement: The 20-somethings ruled the 2025 Met Gala. I know, I know! But seriously, this year was all about young talent—from Doechii to Angel Reese to Tyla to Alex Consani to Zendaya. The youngins turned out looks, okay?! Whether it was bold eyeshadow on Chappell Roan or Ayo Edebiri’s swoopy edges or the smokey eye on Halle Bailey, we think we know where we stand on the Gen Z versus millennial debate rn. It might be their first years at the Met, but they’ve solidified their invites for years to come (and also a much-deserved spot on our best Met Gala beauty looks of all time list). Keep scrolling for a peek at why we’re betting on a Gen Z beauty takeover…
