15 Celebrities Who Missed the Fashion Mark at the 2025 Met Gala

The annual Met Gala, known for its stunning fashion and memorable appearances, took place at the iconic Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. This year's event, 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,' embraced the celebration of Black dandyism and menswear. It was co-chaired by stars like Colman Domingo and Lewis Hamilton, who embodied the theme with flair. However, not all attendees impressed onlookers with their wardrobe choices.

Pharrell Williams

As a co-chair of the night, Pharrell Williams was expected to wow the crowd with his attire. While other co-chairs shone in vibrant capes and luxurious ivory suits adorned with ancient jewels, Williams opted for a more muted ensemble. He wore a white jacket with subtle shimmer paired with classic black trousers, leaving many feeling underwhelmed.

Kim Kardashian

Famed for her bold fashion statements, Kim Kardashian arrived at the event in an all-black outfit that surprisingly didn't create much buzz. Her ensemble included a form-fitting leather dress by Chrome Hearts and a fedora reminiscent of Carmen Sandiego. Although attempting to push boundaries with a low-rise skirt in the back, her look was overshadowed by the evening's other striking outfits.

Gustav Magnar Witzøe

Norwegian billionaire Gustav Magnar Witzøe chose a cream suit paired with a latex-like overcoat, wide-brimmed hat, and Tabi boots for his appearance. However, the fit of his outfit seemed off, giving an overall costume-like effect. His clear briefcase filled with vivid red roses only heightened this perception.

Maya Hawke

Maya Hawke turned heads in a custom Prada creation, featuring a pink, strapless dress with a sheer, tan cape. While visually appealing, the ensemble did not reflect the menswear or Black dandyism influences that marked the event's theme.

Sadie Sink

Debuting at the Met Gala, Sadie Sink chose a black ball gown adorned with lace on the bodice and sheer sleeves. Despite its beauty, the dress's Gothic style clashed with the evening's theme, and the voluminous skirt seemed to consume her slight frame.

Anne Hathaway

Anne Hathaway, usually a fashion standout, opted for a low-key look with her Carolina Herrera attire. The combination of a white shirt and a sparkly black-and-white striped skirt didn't leave a lasting impression, despite her status as a style icon. A more eye-catching jacket might have saved the outfit.

Pamela Anderson

Pamela Anderson made a noticeable entrance in a Tory Burch gown awash with crystals. The silver dress featured long sleeves and a generous cut, complemented by her new blonde bob. Though daring, the outfit ultimately appeared to be outside her usual fashion comfort zone.

Heidi Klum

Known for her bold Halloween costumes, Heidi Klum played it surprisingly safe for the Met Gala. Her choice of a plain sleeveless black dress, complete with a flowing train, cried out for more adventurous accessories or a statement jacket to elevate the look.

Savannah James

Filling in for her injured husband, LeBron James, Savannah attended the Gala in a Thom Browne mermaid dress. Aligning with the theme through a suit-inspired bodice and pinstripes, the ensemble faltered due to its ill-fitting corset, which could have been adjusted for a better fit.

Lorde

Lorde's two-piece outfit by Thom Browne featured a shiny silver bandeau and a matching skirt. While the color and shine were appreciated, the overall look felt reminiscent of outdated styles. Tailored pants might have provided a more modern take.

Joe Burrow

Joe Burrow, attending the Gala for the first time, wore a loose-fitting suit that fell short of the standard set by the event's theme of precise tailoring. His choice of casually opened collar, creased pants, and mismatched baby blue sneakers didn't align with the elegance expected for the night.

Omar Apollo

Apollo's suit, crafted by Wales Bonner, featured a cropped jacket and straight-cut trousers alongside a glitzy leopard-print shirt. The ensemble's boldness was overshadowed by a clash with his yellow-highlighted hair, suggesting that simplifying the look could have been more effective.

Gayle King

Recently returned from a literal journey into space, Gayle King donned a hot-pink dress by Chuk Collins embodying a deconstructed suit style. While intended to channel menswear, the outdated peplum waist and floral designs made the gown appear aged.

Hailey Bieber

Opting for minimalism, Hailey Bieber's black suit jacket and tights ensemble exhibited little of the flamboyance associated with dandyism. The outfit would have gained from vibrant accessories or patterned details to break the monochrome monotony.

Kendall Jenner

Accompanying Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner also donned a reserved look, choosing a Torishéju suit jacket with a corresponding gray skirt. The color scheme skewed more towards business attire than the adventurous spirit of dandyism, making a pastel alternative a potentially wiser choice.
