43 Celebs Who Completely Misread The Met Gala 2025 Dress Code

Everything could’ve worked out so well if the stripes on her dress weren’t see-through. It feels a little bare and incomplete, and it doesn’t even cover her up decently — perhaps a nice silver would’ve been a good finish to the look.

Jenna Ortega can pretty much rock any look, but having so many metallic rulers dangling on her bare skin can’t be the warmest experience.

Jessica Kayll definitely stopped by a flower shop on her way to the Met Gala — and then proceeded to buy everything and stick it all to her white outfit.
The petals are a nice touch, but maybe toning it down would’ve had a better effect.

Cole Escola feels like an overwhelming dose of summer as the weather warms up — but not in a way that’s welcome. The colors are too bright, and the comedian’s hair has definitely seen better days.

Did Helen Lasichanh forget to bring her pants?
Don’t get us wrong, she definitely pulls it off, the all-black suits her well. But it seems a little bare with only sheer tights covering her bottom half.

And for this year’s Met Gala, Colman Domingo decided to come as an extravagant curtain.
It’s certainly a creative take on this year’s theme of Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, but to us, the robe seems to cover a bit too much, and it definitely looks a little suffocating.

The skirt and the patterns on the fabric don’t exactly save the look or make Walton Goggins stand out amongst what is surely a sea of black and white.

Underwear is typically supposed to go beneath your clothing, and it definitely doesn’t look good if it’s the other way around. While the rest of Amelia Gray’s outfit isn’t half-bad, this is definitely proof of the former statement.

Creativity is always something that’s applauded, especially at a fashion event like the Met Gala, but having a bulky seat and an even bulkier leopard print on the front of an outfit is hard to pull off — even for someone like Doja Cat.

Chappell Roan kind of looks like she’s going to a rock concert instead of the Met Gala. The colors fit her vibe and so does the makeup, but it isn’t exactly on theme here.
But as one person said, “that is a femininomenon if i’ve ever seen one omfg.”

It’s a fabulous look on her, and she did a great job sticking to the theme. However, the no-pants look isn’t quite working for us just because it feels as if something is missing.

It’s just a headache to keep track of everything going on with the dress. The actress unsurprisingly looks stunning, but her outfit looks as if there are too many sleeves with not enough space to put them together.

The shape of Natasha Poonawalla’s dress looks exactly like a decorative fountain. With the flare tiers and the dangling pearls, it adds into that image even more.
It also can’t be easy to look around or relax in that neckpiece.

It sort of looks like Venus Williams had to hurry to the Met Gala after her tennis match, throwing a huge black robe over her uniform.
She still rocks the look, of course. But the two pieces of clothing don’t feel very cohesive.

It’s just pretty difficult to find a shape for the outfit. There are so many add-ins that it looks a little messy and overwhelming.

From the front, Kim Kardashian’s outfit actually looks quite good with the way it hugs her body, as well as the brief silver accessories. But the low-hanging skirt is making us worried it’ll cause a wardrobe malfunction the moment she sits down.

Maybe Natasha Lyonne just finds New York’s the Met to be really cold, and we can’t blame her for that. But take away the excessive ruffles around her neck, and you’ve got yourself a great look!

If the pants didn’t bulge out the way they did, Tracee Ellis Ross’ outfit probably would’ve been near perfect. But as it stands, the shape does not suit the rest of the look.

It’s a miracle that Savannah James manages to somewhat pull this off, but we’re cringing just looking at the bottom half of it. How can she even walk in that?

Is she cold? Is she hot? We really can’t tell based on the mixed signals the hood and the short skirt are sending.
