One of the most hotly anticipated red-carpet events in the fashion calendar—if not, the whole world—the 2025 Met Gala took place in New York last night, with major celebrities descending on the Metropolitan Museum of Art in dazzling designer looks for the occasion.
This year’s theme was ‘Superfine: Tailoring Black Style’, in line with the Costume Institute’s spring exhibition—and guests certainly got creative with their sartorial interpretations of the dress code. Many chose to champion Black designers on the night, while tailoring and ensembles inspired by the dandyism movement were also prominent on the red carpet.
And while all the stars brought their fashion A-game to the legendary steps of the Met, some were simply a cut above the rest. So, after much deliberation, we bring you Fashion’s Digest UK‘s definitive list of the 15 best dressed celebrities at the 2025 Met Gala.
From Rihanna in Marc Jacobs and Doechii in Louis Vuitton, to FKA Twigs flying the flag for British brand Wales Bonner, these were our favourite fashion moments from the night.

In what will likely go down as the most iconic pregnancy announcements of all time, Rihanna stepped onto the red carpet in a custom-made, bump-revealing look by Marc Jacobs.

Doechii quite literally rocked Louis Vuitton from head to toe for her Met Gala debut, in a Pharrell-designed short suit, knee-high socks, chunky flats and a logo embellishment on her cheek.

Diana Ross made a grand return to the Met Gala red carpet some 22 years after her last appearance, so naturally she had to bring the drama for the occasion. The legendary singer did just that in an 18-foot feathered cape embroidered with the names of her children and grandchildren, styled with a silver embellished gown and supersize headpiece.
