The biggest night of fashion is finally upon us… The 2025 Met Gala is taking place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City this evening. 

Every year on the first Monday of May, a series of A-listers gather in their most extravagant looks for a lavish ball hosted by Vogue editor Anna Wintour.

But this year, many fans were left unhappy with the stars’ looks, branding them as ‘dull’ and calling the 2025 Met Gala the ‘most boring one’ in history.

X, formerly Twitter, has been flooded with negative posts from underwhelmed viewers, many of whom were quick to blame the theme: Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.

It’s based on Monica L. Miller’s 2009 book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity, and is meant to pay homage to black dandyism – a style with European roots which started post-Emancipation and came out in full force during the Harlem Renaissance.

Join DailyMail.com’s live coverage as we discuss the red carpet looks, the most dramatic – and boring – ensembles of the night, the worst and best dressed, and all of the celebrity arrivals, as well as share updates from what’s going on inside the coveted ball.

According to CBS News, a ticket into the event costs $75,000, while tables for multiple guests start at $350,000.

Fashion houses typically purchase tables and invite celebrities as their guests, so stars don’t pay anything to attend, according to the outlet.
