Here's What Every 2025 Met Gala Co-Chair Wore To The Big Event
After months of anticipation, the 2025 Met Gala is upon us. You may or may not know that every year's Met Gala theme is specifically tied to the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute's Spring exhibition, and for this year's exhibition the theme is Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.
The exhibit is inspired by Barnard Professor of Africana Studies Monica L. Miller's 2009 book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity.
Every Met Gala also has co-chairs alongside Vogue Editor-in-Chief Anna Wintour. Here's who they are and what they wore tonight:

‘Vogue' Editor Who Trump Has Raged at Spotted at White House
A fashion icon was spotted at the White House this week—putting ICE Barbie Kristi Noem to shame. Anna Wintour, the world-famous Vogue editor, rolled up to the South Lawn sporting her perfectly sleek bob and equipped with a mission: to discuss the impact of President Donald Trump's tariffs on the fashion industry. She was not, however, there to end the feud between her and First Lady Melania Trump and finally give her a spot on the cover. Wintour was flanked by two other industry legends: Steven Kolb, CEO of the Council of Fashion Designers of America (CFDA), and Stephen Lamar, president and CEO of the American Apparel & Footwear Association (AAFA). The Trumps opened their home for the party, even though Wintour has famously snubbed the pair on more than one occasion. Melania and Wintour share a host of similarities: both are foreign-born, cold and commanding figures who have an affection for Italian designers. For a while, the two seemed to get along fine: before his presidential run, Trump and his wife were routinely invited to the Met Gala and other Vogue events. Melania even graced the cover of Vogue in 2005 wearing her wedding dress. But things changed once Trump was elected. In October 2017, Wintour vowed she would 'never' invite Trump back to the Met Gala. And unlike former First Ladies Jill Biden and Michelle Obama, Wintour pointedly chose not to put Melania on the cover of Vogue. Wintour arrived in Washington, D.C. to meet with Susie Wiles, Trump's chief of staff, in the hopes of finding relief for the heavily tariffed, $500 billion fashion industry. The industry, which supports 10 million jobs nationwide, has borne a large brunt of Trump's attacks. Right now, the average tax on fashion items is nearly 13 percent. And even though the products only make up approximately 5 percent of what the U.S. imports, they are responsible for over a quarter of the total tariffs collected. Since the fashion industry is already so heavily taxed, the three industry leaders told Wiles the extra tariffs would only put the fashion industry at a disproportionate disadvantage. Wintour, a proud Democrat, was there to say her piece—and butter up to the Trump administration—despite the ongoing feud with Melania. According to Wintour's biographer, Amy Odell, Vogue twice tried to photograph Melania during Trump's first term. She declined both times when she learned it would not guarantee her a cover feature. Immediately after Melania posed for her first White House official portrait, wearing a black Dolce & Gabbana business suit, Vogue published a scathing article saying that the outfit made Melania appear 'more like a freelance magician than a public servant.' 'Trump looked more like she was guest-starring on an episode of The Apprentice than assuming the role of First Lady of the United States,' wrote Vogue's Hannah Jackson. Republicans fell in line to support Melania. Melania's friend, Bill White, wrote on X: 'We cherish and support [Melania]. We've decided to cancel all our subscriptions to Condé NASTY. I urge everyone who loves America to join us in this action.' Melania's former confidante, Stephanie Winston Wolkoff, wrote a book that shone a light on the depth of the rivalry: 'I don't give a f--- about Vogue or any other magazine," Melania allegedly said. 'They would never put me on the cover. All these people are so mad.' The drama extends to the president, too. According to Odell, when Wintour came to visit Trump in New York in 2016, after he won the election, he reportedly felt 'offended' that nobody told him ahead of time. He was so upset he 'didn't even say hello.'

How Rihanna's Latest Savage X Fenty Shoot Kept Fans Guessing
Rihanna's latest Savage X Fenty campaign was shot strategically. The entrepreneur revealed she did the shoot earlier in her third pregnancy and went out of her way to keep her personal news under wraps. 'It's me playing 'hide the baby bump' whole shoot!' she captioned the images on Instagram. In the photos, Rihanna poses in a vibrant tiled setting wearing a red printed bra and thong set. She avoids giving a full view of her stomach, whether she leans against a wall or back in a chair. Rihanna announced she and A$AP Rocky were expanding their family at this year's Met Gala, which Rocky co-chaired. The couple is already parents to two sons: RZA, 2, and Riot, who will turn 2 this summer. Rihanna has been out regularly this spring. Just last week, she wore multiple cut-out dresses in Cannes, showcasing her elegant maternity style. She even released her first new single in three years, 'Friend of Mine,' for the upcoming Smurfs movie this month. Rihanna told Entertainment Tonight at the Met Gala that her third pregnancy wouldn't stall her long-awaited ninth album completely. At most, she joked, it would only delay 'maybe a couple videos.' Post-Met Gala, the pair is 'focused on family time,' an insider told People. 'Rihanna's a great mom. She loves playing with the kids. He's such a playful dad too. They were hoping for another baby.' Another source told People that the couple planned for close pregnancies. 'Rihanna has always wanted a big family, so she couldn't be more excited,' the insider said. 'Rihanna and Rocky are thrilled to be growing their family, and they can't wait to give their boys another sibling. They wanted to have their children close together in age, so that they could grow up together and share a close bond. They feel so blessed and are so grateful for this next chapter in their lives. It's a very special time.' A source gave Entertainment Tonight a similar statement, saying, 'Rihanna and A$AP are so excited about baby number three. They have been open about wanting another baby.'
