SRK Rocks Huge 'K' Pendant, Black Suit By Sabyasachi In Met Gala 2025 Grand Debut
Last Updated: Shah Rukh Khan accessorised with Sabyasachi High Jewellery featuring multiple statement chains at the MET Gala 2025 Shah Rukh Khan has embraced 'dandyism' in his style for many decades and the MET Gala was not different. MET Gala 2025 marked the global superstar's debut on the iconic Metropolitan Museum of Art's stairs. Even in uniformity, Sabyasachi maintained Shah Rukh Khan's individuality. An homage to the iconic house insignia, the Royal Bengal Tiger, its beauty, ferocity and strength was celebrated with Shah Rukh Khan. Shah Rukh walked on the blue carpet sporting a walking stick—a handcrafted wooden beauty with a solid gold tiger head. Sabyasachi has always believed that the future of artisanal crafts and handwoven textiles is in luxury, and that is India's biggest strength and contribution to both fashion and jewellery. Styled by Shaleena Nathani, Shah Rukh's MET Gala look was accentuated with Sabyasachi High Jewellery pieces featuring multiple statement chains. The highlight of the jewellery pieces was the SRK encrusted pendant and the massive K pendant embellished with diamonds that showed everyone who the real King is. Shah Rukh's all black ensemble featured a long blazer. Shah Rukh blew kisses to the fans on the blue carpet and showed everyone who the true Kind of Cinema is! While we expected some desi dandyism in SRK's style, we love that he never fails to leave an impressionable impact wherever he goes. MET Gala was iconic and he is the first Indian male actor to grace fashion's biggest night. With the focus on suiting and menswear, the red carpet saw silhouettes and accessories styled and interpreted by various celebrities including Zendaya, Teyana Taylor, Lewis Hamilton, Emma Chamberlain, Gigi Hadid, Joe King, Sydney Sweeney, Pharrell Williams, Gina Alice, Manish Malhotra, Sabyasachi Mukherjee, Mona Patel, Zoe Saldana, Miley Cyrus, Diana Ross, among others. This year's MET Gala was co-chaired by Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, Pharrell Williams and Anna Wintour. First Published: May 06, 2025, 04:29 IST

Met Gala 2025: Kiara Advani flaunts big baby bump, golden breastplate makes a bold statement in Gaurav Gupta
Met Gala 2025 India Time: Kiara Advani is serving Black dandyism with a desi twist, nailing the 'Tailored for You' theme like it was made for her. With this, she is now officially the fourth Bollywood actress to walk the red carpet–decked stairs of Manhattan's Metropolitan Museum of Art's Costume Institute. The mom-to-be arrived at the Met Gala 2025 flaunting her baby bump publicly for the first time, dressed in none other than Indian designer Gaurav Gupta. Gupta has carved a name for himself as one of the world's most sought-after designers, having dressed international stars like Beyoncé, Mindy Kaling, Ashley Park, Kim Kardashian, Mariah Carey, Shakira, Katy Perry, and many more. A day before the big night, Kiara touched down in NYC with hubby Sidharth Malhotra in tow. Speaking about her look, a tribute to motherhood and the Gala's theme, Kiara said, 'Making my Met Gala debut at this point in my life, as both an artist and mother-to-be feels incredibly special. When my stylist, Anaita, approached Gaurav to design my look, he created 'Bravehearts', a vision that honours the transformative phase I'm stepping into connecting it beautifully to this year's dress code 'Tailored for You.' Inspired by the legacy of André Leon Talley, we reflected on what it means to show up with intention, individuality, and strength. This is a silent tribute to that — it's a reminder that everything we do paves the way for the next generation.' Kiara Advani graces the red carpet of Met Gala 2025 Watch Kiara Advani's Met Gala 2025 moment here View this post on Instagram A post shared by KIARA (@kiaraaliaadvani) Kiara Advani attends the 2025 #MetGala — met gala (@alldailydate) May 5, 2025 Kiara Advani X Gaurav Gupta at Met Gala 2025 Gupta, who hones the skill of sculptural detailing and turns pastel tones into couture laced with celestial storytelling, has done his magic again. Known for infusing a futuristic edge into his silhouettes, Gupta's work feels just right for Kiara, who's expecting her first child with Sidharth Malhotra. The actor has earlier rocked a few masterpieces from Gupta's shelves, like the Sculpted Long Trail Saree Gown and Leggings, but dressing her in what is clearly her most beautiful era yet was a whole new challenge. One that the designer pulled off with absolute grace, and a healthy dose of dandyism. Kiara is walking alongside other Bollywood icons like SRK, Priyanka Chopra, and singer Diljit Dosanjh. Alia Bhatt, who walked at the gala twice (in Prabal Gurung and Sabyasachi), has skipped this year, while Deepika Padukone is also missing from the red carpet. Kiara Advani and Sidharth Malhotra in NYC ahead of Met 2025 A day earlier, both Sidharth and Kiara teased their arrival in the Big Apple. The Shershaah actor was seen hitting the gym after sharing a glimpse of his hotel's view. Later, he attended the Broadway show Death Becomes Her: The Musical, which recently swept nominations at the Tony Awards. Meanwhile, Kiara, upon her arrival, gave fans a peek into her hotel room, a table filled with pink roses, a mannequin-shaped cake dressed in a black gown (probably teasing her look for the night), an picture of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, a booklet titled The MET Gala, early chocolates, and so on. The couple announced their pregnancy in February 2025. In a joint statement posted on their Instagram, they wrote, 'The greatest gift of our lives,' alongside the baby's tiny knitted socks. This year, the Met Gala is taking place on May 6, 2025. Actor Colman Domingo, Formula 1 star Lewis Hamilton, rapper A$AP Rocky, and singer Pharrell Williams are serving as the co-chairs of the gala alongside Anna Wintour, with NBA player LeBron James also joining as the honorary chair. The exhibition, with the theme 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,' will roll out in October 2025.

What Happens Inside The MET Gala? We Have Got The Scoop
Last Updated: The 2025 Met Gala will be held on Monday, May 5, with the red carpet event set to commence at 4:30 PM (EST). The much-awaited MET Gala 2025 is all set to unfold, marking another star-studded gathering for celebrities and pop culture enthusiasts. The annual event, which guides the spring exhibit for the Costume Institute at New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art, is rightfully dubbed fashion's biggest night, bringing their A-game to the red carpet. This year, the theme centres around Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, celebrating the style, politics, and history of the style Black men dress. But have you ever wondered what really happens at the Met Gala? We've got you covered. Inside The Met Gala Organised by Anna Wintour at the Metropolitan Museum of Art every year, celebrities get to walk up the famous MET steps every year. However, this is where the public part stops, as once everyone is inside, phones are turned off and the media remains absent. Or as Vogue simply puts it, 'In short: It's a secret. For this reason, guests must abide by the no phone (and therefore, no social media) policy." But as the saying goes, rules are meant to be broken. A couple of inside pictures still manage to make it to the public, including the famous bathroom selfies. the ladies' bathroom at the met gala 2016, photographed by cass bird — elaine (@MUESELLE) February 10, 2021 the met gala bathroom — m ✨ (@PRADAXBBY) May 5, 2024 Beginning from the carpet, celebrities arrive in their best ensemble, adhering to the theme for the evening. Next to follow is the cocktail hour, where the celebrities and other guests socialise and enjoy a tour of the actual exhibit. The exhibit will also open to the public on May 10 and will close on October 26, 2025. They later sit down for a formal dinner, complete with properly assigned seating, as per Cosmopolitan. Last but not least, every year, at least one fancy performer puts on a grand show at the Met Gala, with Ariana Grande delivering a stunning performance last year. To cap off a thoroughly enchanting evening in honor of 'Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion," Ariana Grande was a surprise performer at the 2024 #MetGala. Watch here: — Vogue Magazine (@voguemagazine) May 7, 2024 Met Gala 2025 A charity event, the Met Gala is organised as a fundraiser, traditionally timed to mark the opening of the department's annual fashion exhibition. This year, the 2025 Met Gala will take place on Monday, May 5. In October last year, the Metropolitan Museum of Art announced the 2025 exhibition with the theme, 'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style," bringing features of garments, paintings, photographs, and more from artists and styles from the 18th century through to the present day. While Anna Wintour is returning to co-chair the 2025 Met Gala, she will be joined by the likes of Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, and Pharrell Williams.
