The style Adams would embrace had a name: dandyism. And dandyism was at the heart of Monday’s Met Gala, where many of the world’s most famous and influential tastemakers donned their luxury best to kick off the Met’s “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” exhibit.

Actress Halle Berry played with the Met Gala's theme of sartorial disguise on Monday in a body-hugging LaQuan Smith gown and a cropped tuxedo jacket, paired with a fishnet veil over her eyes. The look that required 1,455 hours to make featured a dipping neckline that showed off debut Cartier jewelry, according to British Vogue.

Throughout her decade-plus of Met Gala attendance, Kim Kardashian has shown that she’s not one to do things halfway—and her arrival at the Met Gala 2025 on Monday proves that this year is no exception.
