Maluma's Willy Chavarria-Designed Zoot Suit Honored Pachuco Culture at the 2025 Met Gala
For the 2025 Met Gala, Maluma harnessed his moment on the steps of the Met to celebrate Colombian pride. It was a night of glamour, but also of reflection on how fashion has the power to directly influence social and cultural change. Speaking to the 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style' exhibition and the honoring of Black dandyism, the best looks of the evening revelled in exquisite tailoring and personal storytelling. Under the 'Tailored For You' dress code, the figure of the dandy was honored in a multitude of ways—fellow Colombian J Balvin, for example, wore a brilliantly pink double-peak lapel suit. Maluma found his own dandy story in the mid-1940s, between the Chicano culture and the Pachucos who found their distinct sense of style as a way to occupy space. Maluma arrived dressed in a brocade, mightnight blue and emerald green zoot suit by Mexican-American designer Willy Chavarria, who accompanied the singer on the red carpet. (Chavarria also wore a creamy pastel pink suit with sculptural lapels. 'Willy is a genius, he knows how to take classic styles and make them feel brand new, and we knew he would capture this theme perfectly,' Stephanie Escobar, Maluma's stylist, tells Vogue. When they considered who could dress him, no one made more sense than Willy Chavarría. 'The look is inspired by the elegance of the pachuco style, which has deep roots in Chicano and Latinx fashion. It integrates naturally with the spirit of Black dandyism, where impeccable tailoring is a form of identity, resilience and pride. It was important that the styling honored both narratives.' Amid the Met Gala preparations, Maluma continued to dominate on his tour, and he stayed committed to collaborating with Chavarria and his team on a stellar look. 'Willy's details were impeccable, from the fabrics to the watch chain,' continues Escobar. She shares that she wanted to include a detail that honored Maluma's Colombian roots. 'Emeralds are Colombia's national stone, so we incorporated them into the jewelry, including an emerald watch from Jacob & Co. and custom emerald and diamond studs from Colombian brand Sileo. It was a subtle, yet meaningful way to tie it all together.'

8 details you might have missed from the 2025 Met Gala red carpet
Venus Williams looked glamorous in green, and her earrings subtly paid tribute to her career as an athlete. Williams looked cool and comfortable in her green Lacoste ensemble. It included a collared shirt, a pleated miniskirt, and an oversize coat with thick beading across its lapels and sleeves. So, you might have missed her small diamond earrings, which were shaped like tennis balls. Diana Ross wore an old Hollywood gown that paid tribute to her family members. Her custom white gown from Eleven Sixteen featured a massive 18-foot train that covered the Metropolitan Museum steps. It was glamorous, theatrical, and quietly meaningful. On the red carpet, she described it to Vogue as "a forever family" gown. "It has the names of all my children and my eight grandchildren," she said. "Everybody's name is embroidered." Colman Domingo's cape wasn't just regal. It was inspired by iconic figures of the past. Speaking with GQ while getting ready for the Met Gala, Domingo said he always imagined himself wearing blue at the 2025 event. Then Monica L. Miller, who helped curate this year's Costume Institute exhibit, told the actor that one of the first dandies was a freed slave who dreamed of dancing in "blue superfine wool." "I literally almost stumbled," Domingo told the publication. "I said, 'He named a color? That's the color I want to wear!'" He worked with Valentino to create his ensemble, which included a royal-blue cape with a bedazzled chest piece. André Leon Talley inspired its draping, while its sparkling details represented the jewelry and architecture of the Moors and other North African people. Teyana Taylor's dramatic jacket had song lyrics pressed into its velvet. The statement piece of her custom Marc Jacobs ensemble was a thick red coat with sharp shoulder pads, pleated draping, and rose embellishments. Less flashy were its nods to her song "Rose in Harlem." The phrases "Harlem rose" and "rose out of the concrete" were stamped into velvet pieces that flowed on each side of the jacket. Priyanka Chopra Jonas made jewelry history. Chopra Jonas is a Bvlgari ambassador, so she had the privilege of unveiling a new piece — a diamond necklace with a massive emerald charm — from the jewelry brand at the 2025 Met Gala. In doing so, she also made history as the first to wear this rare gem, which weighs 241.06 carats and is the largest faceted stone ever set by Bvlgari. Maluma wore a green watch that was equally flashy and expensive. Maluma sported an emerald-encrusted watch called the Emerald Billionaire III to complement his blue and green suit from Willy Chavarria. The timepiece's design was eye-catching, and it was also highly valuable. Jacob & Co., the brand behind the accessory, said it retails for $5 million. Kerry Washington's ensemble was more daring than you might have realized. Not only was her custom Simkhai skirt see-through, revealing her undergarments, but its blazer top was also backless. The cream-colored piece had a circle cutout that was only visible when she turned around. It was also enhanced with a diamond necklace that draped down her back. Zendaya and Anna Sawai wore white outfits that were extremely similar. Zendaya hit the red carpet first in a white ensemble from Louis Vuitton. It was tailored perfectly, from its blazer to its bell-bottom pants, and accessorized just as well with a tie and hat. So, it was a little surprising to see Anna Sawai show up later in a nearly identical outfit. The main difference was that the Japanese actor's suit was more cream-colored and tailored with a looser fit.

Colombian court rules Karol G and J Balvin song violated rights of children
A high court in Colombia has ruled that the reggaeton song '+57' by urban music stars J Balvin and Karol G violated the rights of children because its lyrics 'sexualized' minors. In a 14-page ruling, the court ordered Karol G, J Balvin and several other reggaeton singers – including Feid, DFZM and Maluma - who helped to record the song last year to refrain from publishing music that violates the rights of children and teenagers. 'Sexualizing minors reduces them to becoming objects of desire, and exposes them to risks that can affect their development,' the court said. The song generated controversy in Colombia when it was released in November, with organizations that defend the rights of children quickly calling for its removal. '+57' is named after Colombia's telephone country code and talks about a young woman who goes partying "despite having an owner.' The woman, 'who has been a hot mama since she was 14' ("Mamacita desde los fourteen") enters a disco and begins to do shots. The song also refers to weed 'starting to work', passing 'the drinks mouth to mouth' and 'no room for your butt in the car.' Karol G, whose real name is Carolina Giraldo, apologized for the song on her Instagram account last year, saying that the lyrics had been 'taken out of context' but also adding that she realized she had 'a lot to learn.' 'As artists, we are exposed to public opinion, and to the individual interpretations of people who like us and people who differ with what we do,' read her apology. 'I feel a lot of frustration for the misinformation that has been given, about the false posts that I have supposedly made and deleted from twitter, an account that I have not used for more than six months. In this case, unfortunately, the lyrics of a song, with which I sought to celebrate the union between artists and put to shine my people … were taken out of context." She added: 'None of the things said in the song have the direction they have been given, nor was it said from that perspective but I listen, I take responsibility and I realize that I still have a lot to learn. I feel very affected and I apologize from the bottom of my heart.' Following the backlash and pressure from the Columbian Congree and the Colombian Institute of Family Welfare (ICBF), the lyric was changed to: "Mamacita desde los eighteen". The song was recorded in Karol G's hometown of Medellin, Colombia's main tourist destination and a city that has become famous for nurturing several famous reggaeton singers. However, Medellin has also struggled to protect minors from sexual predators, who visit the city in search of young women.
