Omar Apollo channeled a sly cheetah galán, J Balvin exuded dapper energy in a vintage pink suit, and Bad Bunny donned a traditional Puerto Rican pava hat. Monday’s (May 5) 2025 Met Gala was a visual feast, and the Latin music stars came out in full force at one of the year’s most eagerly awaited fashion events.

Other luminaries in Latin music at the Met Gala included Shakira, who turned heads in a dreamy soft pink gown by Atelier Prabal Gurung with a fluffy train. Rosalía wore an immaculate sculpted white gown by Olivier Rousteing, and Maluma honored zoot-suit-era pachucho culture at the coveted event.

Held at New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday, this year’s Met Gala celebrated the theme of “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” inspired by Monica L. Miller’s 2009 book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity. The official dress code is “Tailored for You,” a nod to the spring 2025 exhibition’s focus on menswear and is “purposefully designed to provide guidance and invite creative interpretation,” according to Vogue.

Pharrell Williams, A$AP Rocky, Colman Domingo and Lewis Hamilton served as co-chairs, while LeBron James served as honorary chair. Tyla, Doechii, André 3000, Usher, Janelle Monáe and more also served as members of the costume institute benefit host committee. Other artists who attended the Met Gala 2025 were Sabrina Carpenter, LISA, Diana Ross, JENNIE and Dua Lipa.
