Because the night celebrated menswear and the artistry of tailoring, the guys especially stood out. Co-chairs Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, and Pharrell Williams delivered high-fashion drama with textured fabrics, striking patterns, and structures that commanded attention.
They captured the spirit of the exhibit—which shares the same name as the theme—'Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.' The installation explores the evolution of Black fashion from the 18th century to today, centering the concept of dandyism: a style rooted in elegance, individuality, and rebellion. Following the abolition of slavery, dandyism became a powerful tool for Black expression and self-definition within high society. The Met's exhibition brings this history to life through garments, paintings, photographs, literature, and film.

Amazon lays off over 100 employees in Wondery unit as part of audio business restructuring
Amazon is laying off roughly 110 employees in its Wondery podcast division and the head of the group is leaving as part of a broader reshuffling of the company's audio unit. In a Monday note to staffers, Steve Boom, Amazon's vice president of audio, Twitch and games, said the company is consolidating some Wondery units under its Audible audiobook and podcasting division. Wondery CEO Jen Sargent is also stepping down from her role, Boom said. 'These changes will not only better align our teams as they work to take advantage of the strategic opportunities ahead but, even more crucially, will ensure we have the right structure in place to deliver the very best experience to creators, customers and advertisers,' Boom wrote in the memo, which was viewed by CNBC. 'Unfortunately, these changes also include some role reductions, and we have notified those employees this morning.' Bloomberg was first to report on the job cuts. The move comes nearly five years after Amazon acquired Wondery as part of a push to expand its catalog of original audio content. The podcasting company made a name for itself with hit shows like 'Dirty John' and 'Dr. Death.' More recently, Wondery signed several lucrative licensing deals with Jason and Travis Kelce's 'New Heights' podcast, along with Dax Shepard's 'Armchair Expert.' Amazon is streamlining 'how Wondery further integrates' into the company by separating the teams that oversee its narrative podcasts from those developing 'creator-led shows,' Boom wrote. The narrative podcasting unit will consolidate under Audible, and creator-led content will move to a new unit within Boom's organization in Amazon called 'creator services,' he wrote. Amazon's audio pursuits face a heightened challenge from the growing popularity of video podcasts on Alphabet 's YouTube, which now hosts an increasing number of shows. Video shows require different discovery, growth and monetization strategies than 'audio-first, narrative series,' Boom wrote in the memo to Amazon staffers. 'The podcast landscape has evolved significantly over the past few years,' Boom said.

Amazon denies report it's shutting down Wondery podcast studio
Amazon is denying that it's shutting down Wondery, the podcast studio it acquired in late 2020, after Bloomberg reported on Monday that the company was closing the studio and cutting 110 jobs. Amazon told TechCrunch that Wondery will continue to develop creator-led podcasts under the Wondery brand within a new team. What's changing is that the company is separating the teams that oversee Wondery's narrative podcast efforts from those developing its creator-led shows. Wondery is combining its narrative podcast studio, which includes podcasts like Dr. Death and American Scandal, with Audible. 'The podcast landscape has evolved significantly in the past few years, particularly with the rise of video-forward, creator-led content,' Amazon said in an emailed statement. 'These changes reflect that evolution and will streamline how Wondery integrates further into Amazon. By making these changes, we can better support creators in monetizing their content across multiple channels, help them expand their brand IP, and simplify the process for advertisers while making content more accessible to audiences wherever they prefer to consume it. This evolution builds on Wondery's early success with video-forward shows and positions us to better serve creators, customers, and advertisers.' Despite securing big names in the business, the company is now shifting its strategy in an effort to better compete with rivals like Spotify and YouTube as the podcasting industry embraces video formats. Update: The article was updated to reflect that Amazon denied reports of Wondery shutting down.
