5 Ways to Style Your Own MET Gala Outfit

5 Ways to Style Your Own MET Gala Outfit

The MET Gala took place on 5 May 2025 and this year’s theme was “Tailored For You”. And we were NOT disappointed. Here are some cool tips on how to dress yourself in this year’s MET Gala theme:

1) Metallic and Shiny Pieces

Metallic clothing like shiny tops or dresses will create that futuristic look you need. Look for items with metallic accents or fabric finishes like silver or gold for a bold effect.

2) Bold and Structured Silhouettes

Look for structured pieces like tailored blazers, statement coats, or dresses with unique cuts. Think sophisticated yet stylish items that help create a standout shape.

3) Layering with Fashion-Forward Fabrics

Mixing fabrics like leather, denim, and satin will put a whole new spin on your outfit. Try layering a leather jacket over a satin blouse or dress for a bold contrast.

4) Statement Accessories

Accessories are a must. Jewellery, bags, and shoes can elevate your outfit—look for chunky, geometric jewellery or bold heels to add some tailored flair.

5) Sleek and Minimalist Styles

Keeping your style minimalist makes it automatically look more tailored. Choose simple, clean lines with bold details or colours to channel a modern aesthetic.

Put your look together and send it through to us—we would love to see it!
