    What the Met Gala Co-Chairs Wore to Fashion’s Biggest Night

    Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, A$AP Rocky and Pharrell Williams were tapped as co-chairs — alongside Vogue‘s Anna Wintour — for this year’s Met Gala, and leaned into the dress code of “Tailored for You.” (Honorary chair LeBron James missed the event due to a knee injury).

    This year’s Met Gala theme celebrated the Costume Institute’s new spring exhibition Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, exploring the importance of sartorial style to Black people from the 18th century to today through the lens of dandyism.

    Domingo donned two looks, arriving first in a blue, floor-length Valentino cape before removing it to reveal a black-and-white suited outfit underneath. Hamilton, who hit the carpet alongside Domingo and Wintour, opted for all-white ensemble designed by Wales Bonner and an accompanying beret. The F1 champion brought a table at the 2021 Met Gala to specifically bring Black designers, he told Vogue, and that led to “speaking with Anna and just starting to collaborate on what the Met could grow to and what it can one day be” via this year’s theme.

    A$AP Rocky — who arrived ahead of his partner Rihanna, currently pregnant with baby No. 3 — arrived in a black suit he personally designed.

    Confirming that he was “representing Harlem,” the rapper told The Hollywood Reporter, that he “thought I was being pranked at first” when Wintour first asked him to co-chair. He continued, “When I realized she was serious I was just happy and she just recommended that I wear a Black designer so I decided to wear my own, this was all designed by your truly.”

    And Williams, who is now men’s creative director of Louis Vuitton, rocked a double-breasted blazer he also designed, featuring over 15,000 pearls that took 400 hours to put together.

    “We get to celebrate that really beautiful color black. People love black glasses and black shoes and black cars and plans and black devices, black everything, but tonight we get to celebrate the people,” he told THR of the night’s theme. “And when the people get dressed and the people get fresh, with style and grace, that’s amazing. It’s an American thing.”
