At the Met Gala 2025, Bad Bunny Wears Prada a lo Criollo
While the Puerto Rican superstar was a co-host at last year's Met Gala, this year, he gets to just enjoy himself. 'It's nice because you don't have to be the first to arrive,' he says. 'Last year I greeted literally everybody but I still had fun you know, because I got to see what everybody was wearing and I got to critique all the looks.' Although he's been to the event many times before, he's open to seeing where the night takes him. 'I always enjoy myself. One year I saw Pedro Pascal, it was the first time we met, but if he's there tonight then that's going to be super cool. Last year Rosalía was at my table and it was nice…So it really depends.'
Perfume is a recurring theme in Bad Bunny songs—there's a song literally called 'PERFuMITO NUEVO' on the record, and on another track he sings that he smells good. So I have to ask, what scent will he be wearing tonight? 'I love perfumes that have unusual scents. Sometimes people have told me they don't like how I smell because they're so uncommon. But I love them. I brought five bottles of different scents on this trip to New York,' he said, adding: 'My favourite way to create memories is through songs and through scent, so I love to wear a perfume when I go on a trip, and then I put it away so that later, I can grab the bottle and go on a trip.'
But what perfume will he actually wear tonight? 'I don't know what I'm going to wear, but now that you're putting pressure on me I kind of want to go out and pick a new one up just to wear at the Met.' If anyone catches a whiff of Bad Bunny tonight, please report back.

9 celebrity jewellery looks that made a statement
2. Audrey Hepburn's Tiffany & Co pearls in 'Breakfast at Tiffany's' (1961) Above Breakfast at Tiffany's' launched numerous celebrity jewellery moments (Photo: IMDB) Nothing says 'iconic' like Audrey Hepburn gazing into a Tiffany's window in Breakfast at Tiffany's . The multi-strand pearl necklace she wore with a Givenchy black dress wasn't hers, but it cemented Tiffany & Co's place in pop culture and made pearls eternally chic. It also introduced the idea of fine jewellery as aspirational, cinematic luxury. 3. Lady Gaga's Tiffany & Co diamond at the Oscars (2019) When Lady Gaga stepped onto the red carpet wearing the legendary 128.54-carat Tiffany Diamond—previously worn only by Mary Whitehouse (at the 1957 Tiffany Ball) and Audrey Hepburn (for Breakfast at Tiffany's promos)—she gave the historic yellow diamond its most modern moment yet. Styled with black gloves and an Alexander McQueen gown, it was a homage and a power play all at once. 4. Rihanna's Chopard diamonds at Cannes (2017) Rihanna shut down the Cannes red carpet in custom Chopard—including a watch reimagined as a choker. The look wasn't just stunning—it marked the launch of her co-designed Rihanna ♥ Chopard collection and redefined red carpet jewellery as edgy, fashion-forward and layered, not just traditional. 5. Princess Diana's sapphire engagement ring (1981) Chosen by Diana from a Garrard catalogue (not custom-made), the 12-carat sapphire surrounded by diamonds was controversial for its 'off-the-rack' accessibility. It later became one of the most globally iconic celebrity jewellery pieces, and even more so when Prince William proposed to Kate Middleton with the same ring in 2010. It is now arguably the most famous engagement ring in the world. 6. Beyoncé's Lorraine Schwartz diamonds at the Met Gala (2014) Paired with her sheer Givenchy gown, Beyoncé's black diamond chandelier earrings were a high-drama highlight of the 2014 Met Gala. Lorraine Schwartz and Beyoncé have a long-standing relationship, and this jaw-dropping look proved that diamonds can be as daring as they are dazzling. 7. Marilyn Monroe's diamonds in 'Gentlemen Prefer Blondes' (1953) Above Celebrity jewellery doesn't have to feature gold carats and flawless diamonds to make an impact. While the dazzling diamond necklace Marilyn wore in the 'Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend' number wasn't real, the scene remains one of the most referenced jewellery moments in film history. The fantasy of diamonds as a girl's ultimate bestie is forever imprinted on pop culture. 8. Kim Kardashian's Lorraine Schwartz diamond ring (2016) Valued at over US$4 million, the 20-carat ring Kanye West gave Kim became notorious after it was stolen during a Paris robbery. It was a defining piece of the Kardashian jewellery narrative—jaw-dropping, headline-making and inseparable from celebrity security discourse.

Zendaya's Bulgari emerald suite at the Venice Film Festival (2021) As a Bulgari ambassador, Zendaya has delivered major celebrity jewellery moments, but her appearance at the Venice Film Festival wearing an emerald and diamond Bulgari suite with a sculptural Balmain gown was peak modern goddess.

Dua Lipa's Chanel Look For The 2025 Met Gala Is Adorned With Feathers, Crystals… And Callum Turner
Dua Lipa has delivered some memorable Met Gala moments over the years: there was the purple psychedelic dress by Atelier Versace that she wore to the 2019 Camp -themed edition; the archival Chanel haute couture gown from autumn/winter 1992, originally worn by Claudia Schiffer down the runway, which she chose to honour Karl Lagerfeld in 2023; and the boudoir-inspired Marc Jacobs number that she sported for the Sleeping Beauties theme in 2024. Dua Lipa wearing Chanel at the 2025 Met Gala. John Shearer This year, the singer turned to Chanel once again for her 2025 Met Gala look. In keeping with the 'Tailored for You' dress code, Lipa wore a custom open-back chiffon dress with a long bow at the back, a black sequin tweed jacket and an organza cape – all adorned with crystals, pearls and feathers to add to the sense of drama. In total, the complete look took 2,000 hours to make and features 45,000 embroidered elements, highlighting the remarkable level of craftsmanship on display. In keeping with this year's Met Gala theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style , Lipa and her stylist Lorenzo Posocco were inspired by dancer and civil rights activist Josephine Baker. '[She was] a woman who truly embodied the spirit of dandyism on and off-stage and whose legacy speaks to femininity, fearless expression and resistance,' Posocco tells Vogue . 'It's a black chiffon dress adorned with a fully embroidered corset, which was inspired by a photo that captivated Dua when we began our research with Vogue contributor, Eric McNeal. The tweed jacket is a nod to Josephine's play [with] masculinity and femininity. And the organza cape [is] for the performer, the drama of it all. Ultimately, we were captivated by Josephine Baker as she is one of the great Black female dandies. In so many ways, we found that the codes of Josephine were so relatable to the Chanel essence. It really was the perfect match.' Of course, Lipa's relationship with the French fashion house goes way back: the star previously revealed how she splurged on the Chanel Boy bag after she got her first pay cheque from her record label more than a decade ago in 2014. Since then, she's worn Chanel on countless occasions – including during her Radical Optimism tour, where she wore a bodysuit version of the chained dress originally seen on Christy Turlington on the maison's spring/summer 1992 catwalk (Lily-Rose Depp later went on to wear the gown at the 2019 Met Gala) – and was announced as a face of the Chanel 25 bag earlier this year. Lipa hasn't been exclusively wearing Chanel for Met Gala weekend though, with the star also photographed in US brands Willy Chavarria and Calvin Klein while in the Big Apple. Could we see her championing another New York designer for the Met Gala after-parties? Watch this space. Article originally published on Vogue US
