Meanwhile, Zuri Hall and Emma Chamberlain both opted for pinstripe dresses. 

Monica is the chair of Africana Studies at Barnard College, as well as a professor at the institute.

According to Monica, Black dandyism is ‘a strategy and a tool to rethink identity, to reimagine the self in a different context. To really push a boundary – especially during the time of enslavement, to really push a boundary on who and what counts as human, even,’ via Vogue.

The Met Gala 2025 will be co-chaired by Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky, Colman Domingo, Pharrell Williams and Anna Wintour, with Lebron James as the honorary chair.
