At the 2025 Met Gala, themed “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” actress Laura Harrier captivated attendees with a bespoke ensemble that seamlessly blended classic tailoring with modern femininity.
Designed by Zac Posen for Gap Studio, the outfit featured a structured cream-colored vest with a plunging neckline, paired with ultra-wide-leg silk satin trousers and voluminous sheer sleeves. This look paid homage to Black dandyism and was inspired by archival photographs of Harrier’s father and grandfather in their Sunday best [source].
Harrier’s appearance was further accentuated by a triple-layer pearl necklace and radiant makeup by L’Oréal Paris. The ensemble stood out for its innovative interpretation of the event’s theme, celebrating Black fashion’s artistry and self-expression through tailored silhouettes [source].
While some media outlets speculated about a possible wardrobe malfunction due to the gown’s daring neckline, there is no substantial evidence or credible reports confirming any such incident. Harrier carried the ensemble with poise and confidence, embodying the evening’s celebration of individuality and cultural heritage.
