Pharrell Williams continues to add jobs to his ever-growing résumé: producer, rapper, men’s creative director at Louis Vuitton , LEGO biopic subject , and now, two-time Met Gala co-chair. He, along with Colman Domingo, A$AP Rocky , Formula One driver Lewis Hamilton, and Anna Wintour are co-chairing the 2025 Met Gala, according to Vogue . Williams last co-hosted in 2017, when the theme was Rei Kawakubo, while the other men are all first-timers — though Rocky may get tips from his partner, Rihanna , the undisputed queen of the Met Gala.
LeBron James will bring some courtside flair as an “honorary co-chair.” This year’s Met Gala will accompany the Costume Institute’s exhibition “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.” It will explore Black male fashion through the lens of dandyism, inspired by the book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity , by Monica L.
Miller. We’re most excited to see outfits from the women and genderqueer celebrities who draw on dandyism in their fashion already. Janelle Monáe , we expect great things.
