Generate Key Takeaways Originally appeared on E! Online Good thing Anne Hathaway left her cerulean sweater at home. The Devil Wears Prada star stepped out at the Met Gala 2025, honoring the Tailored for You dress code in a custom Caroline Herrera skirt-suit combo, complete with a sparkly black and silver skirt and a simple white dress shirt. (See every Met Gala 2025 look here.) Anne previously hinted at her jaw-dropping look just days ago, when she attended a Versace event—which also saw Sabrina Carpenter in attendance—in New York sporting a suit by the brand. And Anne's appearance at the Met Gala comes after a two-year hiatus, as her last time attending the fashion-forward event was in 2023 for the 'Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty' theme also in Versace, paired with some Bulgari jewelry. Like her character Andrea Sachs in the 2006 film alongside Meryl Streep and Emily Blunt, Anne proved that she can, in fact, rock the Chanel boots and hold her own on a red carpet, especially with the help of her stylist Erin Walsh, whom she started working with in 2019. More from E! Online 'She has been so inspiring to me, the way she manages to take in her own style but ground them in a sense of timelessness," Anne gushed of her stylist back in 2022. 'It has created a greater opportunity for me to explore.' Indeed, the Academy Award winner admitted that her early days in Hollywood saw her choosing things that were 'based in fear,' but now she isn't afraid to take a risk, especially on red carpets. 'The stakes don't feel so high,' Anne explained at the time. 'I'm dressing with a lot more gratitude and a lot more joy.'Of course, Anne still understands that she can still sometimes think that two belts look exactly the same, emphasizing that she doesn't consider herself a 'fashion person.' 'I think it'd be an insult to someone whose education revolved around it, whose life revolves around it, who has done a full fashion cycle in multiple cities as opposed to just, like, getting invited to a show and an after-party,' Anne told V magazine last April. 'I think there's a degree of stamina and schlepping involved in being a proper fashion person. I'm very grateful to be a guest.'

Rihanna Is Pregnant, Expecting Third Child With Partner A$AP Rocky
Rihanna is pregnant with baby number three! In behind-the-scenes footage recorded and shared by WWD, the singer's baby bump is on full display ahead of her appearance at tonight's Met Gala. This will be the star's third child with longtime partner A$AP Rocky. See the clip with her baby bump on display below. The Savage X Fenty founder shares sons RZA, 3, and Riot, 2, with rapper A$AP Rocky, who is a Met Gala co-chair this year. The theme is inspired by guest curator Monica L. Miller's 2009 book, Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity. Other co-chairs include Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, and Pharrell Williams, with LeBron James being named an honorary co-chair — even while he's been forced to pull out of the event due to an injury. Rihanna is a staple at the Met Gala, attending the 2023 event while pregnant with youngest son, Riot. Soon, we will see how she approaches this year's theme, 'Tailored for You,' while with child. Check out some of Rihanna's iconic Met Gala looks below.

Jenna Ortega's 2025 Met Gala Dress Was Literally Made to Measure
Last night, Jenna Ortega arrived to the Met Gala in a shining metal dress custom designed by Balmain. Sleek and understated, the look was expertly sculpted—and perfectly on the nose for the carpet's dress code, 'Tailored For You.' 'A poetical ode to couture and craftsmanship, her sleek sheath dress is crafted entirely from the metallic rulers used by pattern makers, placed vertically along the body to enhance the silhouette to create a bustier gown sculpted on her body,' Balmain explained in a statement. Ortega completed the look with a smoky eye, understated silver jewelry, and a perfectly crisp french manicure. Fresh off her dark comedy film, Death of a Unicorn, the actress fully embodied Balmain's edgy but humorous spirit. This is Ortega's third Met Gala appearance. The Wednesday star first made her fashionable debut in 2022 for 'In America: An Anthology of Fashion,' and returned in 2023 for 'Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty,' wowing both times in custom Valentino and Thom Browne, respectively. THE HAPA BLONDE - Getty Images Following last night's event, the actress made a quick change into a tuxedo body suit with exaggerated padded shoulders. Ortega stepped out hand-in-hand with Sabrina Carpenter, who had also switched into a simple suit paired with a skinny tie, oversized canary-yellow jacket, and a matching Louis Vuitton Speedy. The duo made the trip downtown to attend A$AP Rocky's party at Jeans in SoHo, alongside Rihanna and A$AP's grandmother, making the evening a family affair. You Might Also Like

Kerala firm weaves Met Gala 2025's expansive carpet for the third time
Every year, the Met Gala's carpet goes through its iterations, metamorphosing each time with a new theme. In 2023, one saw a stunning off-white fabric, to be a canvas for the theme of the year: Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty. In 2025, the red carpet took on a blue hue, dotted with stunning dainty yellow and white daffodils, at the star-spangled event — all so that celebrities could look their dandiest to accommodate the theme: Superfine: Tailoring Black Style. Just like Shah Rukh Khan, who made his debut in an all-black ensemble by designer Sabyasachi, and musician Diljit Dosanjh enthralled in a regal Maharaja-themed outfit; the carpet, too ended up having its moment. Woven by Neytt Homes from Kerala, it took 480 people to work on the carpet for over 90 days to meet the Met Gala standards. But this is not new to Neytt, which had its first Gala outing in 2022. The organisation wove the carpet the following year too. For the employees of the luxury home furnishings brand based in Cherthala, Alappuzha, it is a moment of pride, says Sivan Santhosh, director, Extraweave, the parent company; and CEO of Neytt. 'A lot of care and effort have gone into the carpet. The entire team, across departments, worked together to create this beautiful piece of art,' he says. While it was hand-painted by artists in New York, the white base carpet was sent by Neytt in 57 rolls (of four metres x 30metres). Covering an area of 6,840 square metres, the wall-to-wall carpet was woven from natural sisal fibre imported from Madagascar. Known to be the longest, finest, and whitest of fibres, the artisans at Neytt, had to sort the fibre by hand to avoid shade variations. 'Even a slightly off-coloured thread can show up as a shade variation. We did multiple quality checks to ensure the colour was uniform,' says Sivan. 'The team covered every single detail. The boucle weave (a type of flat weave) was done in a specialised loom. For us, it feels like more than just a carpet. It is a unique confluence of art, fashion and culture,' Sivan adds. Neytt draws from its legacy in the carpeting space. This company was started by Sivan's grandfather K Velayudhan, who set up Travancore Mats and Matting company in 1917. The brand grew over the years, exporting rugs and carpets to places across the world. Sivan's father Santhosh Velayudhan launched Extraweave Pvt. Ltd. two decades ago, taking the business a notch higher with imported machinery and expanding the company's horizons. Neytt, founded by Sivan along with Nimisha Srinivas, works towards creating sustainable rugs and carpets using silk, sisal, seagrass, water hyacinth, lyocell, bamboo silk, linen, and recycled PET. The company also works towards empowering women from the region; over 40% of Neytt's workforce is women, including in leadership roles. 'We have been working closely with the Met Gala team for three years now and we are proud that the carpet we create is a canvas for the iconic event,' says Sivan.

The hotels to stay at for the Met Gala, all with an impressive client list
Whether you know it as the Oscars of fashion or the biggest party of the year, the Met Gala is, as my colleague Laird Borrelli-Persson has previously written, the 'hottest ticket in town.' This year, the starry event is back on the first Monday in May, and celebrities are beginning to turn towards New York City for the evening of mesmerising fashion. If you're anything like us, you're probably champing at the bit, waiting impatiently for the exhibit, 'Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty' to open on 5 May so that you can make your way to the museum to feast your eyes on the iconic designer's detailed legacy—from the statement-making pieces that were brought to life on the runway to the pages and pages of his initial sketches. Or, perhaps you'll happen to be in town the weekend leading up to the fête, hoping to catch a glimpse of the star-studded red carpet—where there's always inevitably some sort of surprise—before the fundraising event begins that evening. For such an endeavour, it only seems apropos to stay where luminaries have made their way in and out. Below, some of our favourite hotels with an impressive client list. Inside the Top of the Standard. Courtesy of the Standard, High Line The Standard, High Line Since 2010, the Standard's lounge on the 18th floor has been the after-party spot. The Top of the Standard instantly commands your attention with the bar's gilded centrepiece, reminiscent of a trumpet flute, and its floor-to-ceiling windows that provide incredible panoramic views of New York City and the Hudson River. (Plus, remember when Madonna made this hotel the set for her electrifyingly OTT 'Bitch I'm Madonna' music video?) After a massive dance party, imagine being able to conveniently take the elevator down a few floors to your room, waking up to the same vista you partied away with. The Beekman's veritgo-inducing atrium. Courtesy of The Beekman, a Thompson Hotel The Beekman, a Thompson Hotel Since its opening in August 2016, the fashion set have been flocking to The Beekman. Not only was it the location for Valentino's Pre-Fall 2017 show and Billy Reid's Fall 2017 Menswear collection, but even before the hotel's arrival, it was also where the Maison Martin Margiela x H&M launch party was thrown. Here, comfortable rooms are characterised by velvet and leather furnishings and the rooftop dining experience on a wisteria-adorned terrace has turned into one of the most sought-after reservations downtown. But before you leave, don't forget to capture a photo of the vertigo-inducing atrium. The foyer of the Carlyle Suite. Courtesy of the Carlyle, a Rosewood Hotel Open since 1930, The Carlyle has a rich history and has seen its fair share of royals, heads of state, and A-listers, including the likes of Princess Diana, President John F. Kennedy, Prince William and Kate Middleton, George Clooney, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Cardi B. From the black and white–marbled lobby with Art Deco motifs to the luscious suites (several of which are outfitted with baby grand pianos), The Carlyle is what you want out of an Upper East Side hideaway. The Mark's three-bedroom terrace master bedroom. Courtesy of The Mark The Mark A smidge closer to the Met than The Carlyle, many gala attendees get ready at The Mark. Selena Gomez, Kendall Jenner, Kerry Washington, Emma Watson, Tom Brady, and Gisele Bündchen are just a few names that have been spotted stepping through the hotel's doors. It's also where many designers have held their after-parties, including Michael Kors in 2015 and Donatella Versace in 2018. But to really throw it back, it's where Oprah, Pharrell Williams, and Diddy were partying it up at one of the 2010 after-hours soirees. In the Getty Suite of the Pierre, a Taj Hotel, New York. Courtesy of The Pierre, a Taj Hotel, New York The Pierre, a Taj Hotel, New York If you were one of the bystanders on 5th Avenue in 2019, you'll likely recall Lady Gaga's grand entrance by foot in her flowy Brandon Maxwell cape dress with a full entourage that helped carry her 25-foot train. The award-winning singer and actor chose the Pierre as her spot to prep for the night, and she wasn't alone. The hotel overlooking Central Park also welcomed guests like Gigi Hadid, Cole Sprouse, Mindy Kaling, Julianne Moore, and Dame Joan Collins, who walked out arm-in-arm with Valentino's Pierpaolo Piccioli. And it's no wonder that so many would choose the five-star property as a place to call their temporary home. Having been around since 1930, fashion legends such as Coco Chanel, Karl Lagerfeld, Yves Saint Laurent, and Hubert de Givenchy have all graced the Pierre's hallways. The Surrey Located on 76th Street just a few blocks from the Met, The Surrey was favored by many celebrities to get ready for the gala in 2019. It was here that Hailey Bieber slipped into her thong-bearing gown by Alexander Wang; Céline Dion donned her dramatic Noel Stewart headpiece and fringed Oscar de la Renta bodysuit; Ashley Graham got ready in her logo-studded Gucci-Dapper Dan blazer dress; and Serena Williams slid into her Nike x Off-White Air Force One sneakers. Aside from all of the stars and luxurious bedrooms—some even with terraces—you'll find a private roof garden at the hotel reserved just for members and guests that offers up incredible views of the New York City skyline as well as a café by acclaimed chef Daniel Boulud. The spiral staircase at the New York Edition. Nikolas Koenig / Courtesy of the New York The New York Edition While Ian Schrager has also opened his second New York City Edition hotel in Times Square, bringing out a drove of models for the opening party, it's unlikely celebrities will be willing to give up the first property's less crowded corner of Madison Square Park for the hustle and bustle of 47th Street. In addition to being the site for Rihanna's Fashion Week party, and the 2016 ACE Awards, Victoria Beckham has also been seen leaving the chic hotel for a few years now. Simple, but elegant, the bright white and cream–color rooms are contrasted by dark walnut headboards and nightstands, while the faux fur throw strewn over the bed adds a hint of lavishness. It's no wonder Posh Spice has made the New York Edition her stomping grounds. The living room of the Ty Warner Penthouse at Four Seasons Hotel New York. Courtesy of Four Seasons Hotel New York Four Seasons Hotel New York The Four Seasons is a must for the Ty Warner Penthouse, one of the most expensive hotel suites in North America. Occupying the entire 52nd floor, 700 feet above street level with impressive views, amenities include four balconies, a fully outfitted library, unlimited massages, an infinity soak tub in the onyx and rock crystal–clad master bathroom, and a chauffeured Rolls-Royce to top it all off.
