The men definitely dressed up and showed some serious style chops on the blue carpet this year.&nbsp;

The first Monday in May once again marked fashion&rsquo;s grandest night as New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art transformed into a dazzling celebration of style, culture, and artistry. This year&rsquo;s Met Gala honored the opening of the Costume Institute&rsquo;s spring exhibition, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, inspired by Monica L. Miller&rsquo;s groundbreaking 2009 book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity.
In line with the exhibit, the evening&rsquo;s dress code &mdash; &ldquo;The Garden of Time: Tailored for You&rdquo; &mdash; invited guests to explore the rich history and artistry of tailoring and menswear. Co-chaired by Lewis Hamilton, Colman Domingo, A$AP Rocky, and Pharrell Williams, the gala spotlighted creative, powerful homages to Black sartorial elegance and innovation.
From sharply cut suits to lavish embellishments, these are the best-dressed men who redefined formalwear on fashion&rsquo;s most iconic red carpet.

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Colman Domingo</h4>

Co-chair Colman Domingo made an entrance at the carpet earlier with his scene-stealing, floor-length blue cape with a gold bib-like collar &mdash; a nod to the late fashion trailblazer Andr&eacute; Leon Talley. Later on, he revealed a Valentino black-and-gray suit that played on prints &mdash; a windowpane blazer adorned with pearls, pinstripe shirt underneath, herringbone pants, and polkadots tie and flower brooch.

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Pharrell Williams</h4>

The creative director of Louis Vuitton menswear put a twist on a classic silhouette. Pharrell wore a double-breasted white blazer covered with 100,000 individually-stitched pearls, matched with his signature flared trousers in black and matching sunglasses.&nbsp;

<h4 style="text-align: center;">A$AP Rocky </h4>

Embodying the spirit of a 21st-century dandy, A$AP Rocky wore a Marmot jacket &mdash; a tribute to Harlem&mdash; over a refined black suit from his own brand AWGE. What made his look more striking are the blinding accessories &mdash; a Bvlgari High Jewelry necklace and brooch and a custom Briony Raymond umbrella encrusted in 90 carats-worth of diamonds.

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Lewis Hamilton&nbsp;</h4>

The Formula One star stepped out in a custom ivory suit by Wales Bonner, featuring a cropped jacket layered over a silky button-up tied with a bow, paired with a high-waisted trouser. The all-white ensemble was elevated with baobab-inspired brooches, a shell-trimmed sash at the waist, and a smooth beret by Stephen Jones Millinery.

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Bad Bunny</h4>

As the theme encourages creative interpretations, Bad Bunny drew inspiration from his Puerto Rican roots with his brown Prada suit, matched with a pava (straw) hat and a Flor de Maga-inspired brooch. He also has embellished leather gloves and an oversized bowling bag from the same designer house.&nbsp;

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Chance the Rapper</h4>

As Donatella Versace&rsquo;s date for the night, Chance the Rapper strutted on the carpet in his nude Versace suit, adorned with a couple of floral brooches. The ensemble also featured a bold leather vest, a funky-patterned necktie and a wooly felt hat that brought balance between vintage flair and contemporary edge.&nbsp;

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Christian Latchman</h4>

As the face of the 2025 Met Gala, the model rose to the occasion with his cream-colored suit with a long, pleated train from the rising brand 5000 by designer Taylor Thompson. This is paired with a stark black shirt with an oversized lapel by Theophilio and a large carnation brooch.

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Keith Powers</h4>

The American actor and model made his debut at the Met Gala with a head-turning look from BOSS. The chic cropped black jacket, worn with a crisp, high-collared pinstripe button-down, and the flowy, wide-leg pants, came together to create a dramatic silhouette.

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Andr&eacute; 3000</h4>

The iconic rapper and singer-songwriter completely stole the show as he walked up the Met stairs with a grand piano on his back. He is also wearing workwear-inspired, navy coveralls from Burberry, styled with a red chapeau and chunky black shoes &mdash; reminiscent of the cover of his new album.&nbsp;

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Damson Idris</h4>

Another show-stopper &mdash; figuratively and literally &mdash; is the outfit reveal of Damson Idris at the blue carpet. Entering with a F1-inspired tracksuit and a Swarovski-covered helmet, he later unveiled a dapper ensemble by Tommy Hilfiger &mdash; a half-and-half tuxedo styled with Tartan textile, flared pants and sharp boots, all in vibrant red.&nbsp;

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Walton Goggins</h4>

The White Lotus star just walked out on his first Met Gala in style &mdash; twirling and dancing around with his inside-out skirt courtesy of Thom Browne. Completing the fashion-forward skirt, the actor also wore a long, two-toned overcoat with a sleek combo of a white undershirt and black tie.

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Dwyane Wade</h4>

As love filled the air of the museum's stairs, the basketball superstar and his wife Gabrielle Union donned in Prada &mdash; with Wade sporting a three-piece suit with black trousers, white tailcoat, and the star of the outfit, a teal vest punctuated with multicolored accents.&nbsp;

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Barry Keoghan</h4>

Styled in custom Valentino, Barry Keoghan referenced the Beatles with his military-inspired wool jacket, accentuated with an intricately detailed collar, a suave red waist sash, and flower-embroidered sleeves. Set to play as Ringo Starr, the actor referenced one of the band&rsquo;s album covers, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.&nbsp;

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Adrien Brody</h4>

The two-time Oscars Best Actor exuded gothic glamor in an all black outfit composed of loose tuxedo pants with a simple cummerbund, a satin high-necked top, and a blazer with exaggerated shoulders, accented with a crystal calla lily brooch.&nbsp;

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Callum Turner</h4>

Together with his popstar partner Dua Lipa, Callum Turner looked savvy in a timeless Louis Vuitton suit with a double-breasted black blazer layered over a white satin long sleeves, a crystal-embellished necktie, and well-fitted dress pants.

<h4 style="text-align: center;">Jeremy Allen White</h4>

Jeremy Allen White is classically suited on his debut at the Met Gala this year. Dressed in Louis Vuitton, White donned a striped three-piece suit with a jacket designed with angular paneling, a neat white cotton button-up, and a diamond-structured brooch &mdash; all clean, polished, and tailored.
