Did the 2025 Met Gala make history?
The first Monday in May has come and gone, which means it's time to debrief this year's Met Gala.
The annual fundraising event, and fashion's biggest night, isn't just about who's wearing what. It's when fashion truly becomes art.
And perhaps more than ever this year, it's political. After all, this year's theme is a celebration of Black fashion and style, inspired by professor Monica L. Miller's book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity.
The morning after the Met Gala, Commotion host Elamin Abdelmahmoud talks with J Wortham and Tyler Foggatt about how (well) the theme was interpreted, who understood the assignment, and who missed the mark.
