Met Gala 2025: Fashion Meets Soul in a Night of Personal Mythologies
With the theme “Veils of Identity” and a daring dress code titled “Personal Mythology,” this year’s event invited attendees to go deeper than opulence. It asked them to reveal themselves—through memory, symbolism, and soul-stitched couture.
And they delivered.
Not Just Looks—Legends
Gone were the safe silhouettes and glitter for glitter’s sake. Instead, this year’s fashion felt like storytelling with silk and fire.
Khushboo arrived as a celestial protector—draped in sculptural black with gilded wings curling from her arms and shoulders. A literal embodiment of armor as identity, her look fused ancestral strength with divine femininity.

Timothée Chalamet stunned in an embroidered suit traced with constellations from the night he was born—each stitched line representing the planets in retrograde. Personal, poetic, and just the right amount of drama.
Fashion as Inner Reflection
Designers went all-in, using AI, heirlooms, personal archives, and emotional memory as raw materials.
Iris van Herpen’s designs featured light-reactive fabrics that shifted color depending on the wearer's pulse.

Newcomer Alina Sage debuted a gown grown from organic silk dyed using the artist’s own childhood watercolors.
A Night of Questions, Not Just Applause
The 2025 Met Gala left the audience with more than just style envy—it left us reflecting.
What defines us? What are we hiding behind glam, filters, and fabrics? And if our stories could be worn… what would we look like?
The Biggest Moments
Khushboo’s gold-winged debut has already sparked a million memes and edits (and landed her on every Best Dressed list).
Doja Cat, once again, blurred reality—arriving in an illusion bodysuit that shifted with movement, coded with invisible ink that revealed hidden poetry under UV light.
