Style Gallery: Will The BET Awards Dress Code Bring The Drama We're Hoping For? We Hope So
Source: Aaron J. Thornton / Getty Black tie, but make it culture. The 2025 BET Awards are about to be a fashion movie. For the first time, the BET Awards is setting the tone. Tomorrow, June 9, the network celebrates 25 years of culture-shifting moments with a formal black tie dress code. And if you know anything about the culture, we love to put that ish on. What better way to do it than with a fabulous formal theme? BET's 2025 Awards Show Dress Code Has Entered The Chat & It's Black Tie This year's awards show is shaping up to be more than just a celebration of music, film, and television. It's also a tribute to legacy, style, and the artistry of Black designers. BET has tapped Harlem's Fashion Row to help bring the fashion vision to life. BET and HFR are pairing this year's Best New Artist nominees with Black designers Richfresh, Megan Renee, LaTouche, and Rey Ortiz Jaiteh. That means custom looks, personal storytelling through fabric, and runway-ready moments that will make us gag. When it comes to black tie on the BET carpet, we know it's going to be a moment. For the ladies, that means floor-length gowns with sculptural shapes, dramatic tulle, trains longer than CVS receipts, romantic draping, and body-hugging corsets. Look out for exaggerated sleeves, fabulous feathers, sequined pieces, and silver, bronze, and gilded gold metallics. Also, don't be surprised if we see sheer moments, glamorous grills, and lace looks. For the men, expect tailored suits reimagined. We want to see double-breasted, sleeveless, monochrome, velvet, brocade, and suits dripping in details. Embellished lapels, brooches, and designer loafers can take suits to the next level. Chains over blazers? Of course. Luxe textures? Absolutely. The red carpet should perfectly mix personal style and formal glam. And whether it's Law Roach giving a glam breakdown or Teyana Taylor turning heads on stage, fashion will be its headliner. The BET red carpet never misses. Before the 2025 style rolls in, we're looking back at some of the most iconic fashion moments in BET Awards history. Keep scrolling to see our gallery – and how celebs have already worn versions of black tie to the BET Awards. Style Gallery: Will The BET Awards Dress Code Bring The Drama We're Hoping For? We Hope So was originally published on Source:Getty Taraji brought pure drama to the 2024 BET Awards in this gilded chainlink gown with bold structure and black bustier detail. Her asymmetrical bob was sleek and glossy, perfectly matching her bronzed glam and smoky eye. With a gold choker and confident pose, Taraji owned the carpet. Source:Getty It's the feathers for us! Kelly Rowland attended the 2015 BET Awards giving us fashion, fabulousness, and feathers. The 'Motivation' singer is wearing a high-neck, long-sleeve mini dress with feather details on her sleeves and skirt. Kelly let her dress be the main character by styling her hair in a sleek pulled back ponytail. Source:Getty Queen Bey glimmered in silver at the 2007 BET Awards, wearing a crystal-covered gown cinched with a cinching corset. Her honey blonde waves and green shimmer eyeshadow were the perfect match for the futuristic fantasy. One thing about Beyoncé, she is going to slay. Source:Getty Yung Miami went ready to cause a commotion at the 2024 BET Awards. Our good Sis wore a barely-there black gown with a velvet bra-style bodice and opera gloves. Her sleek bob and glossy skin made the entire look feel extra luxe. She gave body-ody-ody – and style. Source:Getty Chlöe gave body, confidence, and couture in this sultry one-sleeve black gown featuring a sculpted neckline and sequin embroidery. Her loc'd high ponytail with slicked edges and bold lashes showed off her gorgeous cheekbones. This was a textbook slay dark, daring, and full of main character vibes. Source:Getty At the 2018 BET Awards, Tyra gave us regal realness in a nude, sequin-encrusted jumpsuit with sheer puff sleeves that elevated the whole vibe. We love her look because its a different take on black tie. Her shoulder-length bob was flipped just right, and her soft pink lip added a feminine balance to the structured fit. Source:Getty Novi Brown served culture and couture in a LaFalaise Dionn creation adorned with cowrie shells and a daring thigh-high slit. Her twisted bantu knot updo and pearl-studded choker gave royal priestess vibes. It was a look rooted in heritage and dripping in style. Source:Getty Serayah shut down the 2018 carpet in a two-piece metallic gold set with a cropped top and a cascading, ruffled high-low skirt. Her platinum bob and icy glam gave old Hollywood with a futuristic twist. The look was youthful, unexpected, and made black tie feel fresh. Black America Web Featured Video CLOSE

2025 BET Awards will roll Monday night despite protests and unrest in DTLA
The BET Awards are going on Monday in downtown L.A. as planned, despite protests and unrest over the weekend linked to stepped up immigration enforcement by the federal government and the presence of members of the California National Guard. The show, which will air live from the Peacock Theater at L.A. Live for the East Coast and on tape delay here in the west, honors 'the triumphs and successes of artists, entertainers, and athletes in a variety of categories,' according to BET. This year marks the first quarter-century of the annual celebration, which started with the inaugural BET Awards in 2001. That show, held in Las Vegas, was hosted by Cedric the Entertainer and Steve Harvey. Kevin Hart will host this time around, with scheduled performers including Lil Wayne, Teyana Taylor, GloRilla, Playboi Carti and Leon Thomas. 'For over a decade, Kevin Hart has been a beloved part of the BET family, and we couldn't be more excited to have him return to host the 25th anniversary BET Awards,' Scott Mills, BET president and chief executive, said in a statement. 'His unparalleled talent, infectious energy, and deep connection to our audience make him the perfect host for this historic celebration.' 'We're setting the tone for a night that celebrates 25 years of impact, creativity, and Black culture,' said Connie Orlando, an executive vice president at BET, in a statement. 'With electrifying performances from some of the biggest names in music and an iconic comedic host, BET Awards 2025 will be a can't-miss celebration of everything the culture represents.' Kendrick Lamar is the most nominated performer for this year's awards, with his 10 nods topping the six each held by Doechii, Drake, Future and GloRilla. Metro Boomin is looking at five nominations, with SZA and the Weeknd tied with four each. There's also a crowd of seven who have three nominations each: Ayra Starr, Chris Brown, Lil Wayne, Maverick City Music, Playboi Carti, Teddy Swims and Tyler, the Creator. The BET Ultimate Icon Award will be given Monday night to Jamie Foxx, Mariah Carey, Kirk Franklin and Snoop Dogg, multi-hyphenates all, who will be honored for their decades of groundbreaking contributions to music, entertainment, advocacy and community impact. Also on the agenda: A 25-year tribute to MTV's music video countdown show '106 & Park' that features an onstage reunion of former hosts Julissa Bermudez, A.J. Calloway, Keshia Chanté, Rocsi Diaz, Terrence J and Marie Wright, a.k.a. Free. Bow Wow, Amerie, B2K, Jim Jones, Mya, T.I. and more will perform as part of the tribute, 'bringing back the culture-defining energy, music, and moments of the history-making franchise,' BET said in a news release. Audiences can tune in to BET at 8 p.m. or show up early for the preshow, which begins at 6 p.m.
