Lauryn Hill Stuns in Her First-Ever Met Gala Appearance


Share this post

Lauryn Hill made a striking first-ever appearance at the 2025 Met Gala, instantly becoming one of the most talked-about looks of the night.

The legendary singer turned heads in a pale yellow, sculptural suit that perfectly captured the evening’s theme: “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.”

The event, co-chaired by Pharrell Williams, aimed to spotlight Black menswear and the elegance of Black dandyism.

As Pharrell told E! News, “It’s just given us an opportunity and platform to celebrate that really amazing, powerful color of Black.

Here’s a moment where we get to celebrate the people—Black people—and with dandyism.”

Hill, 49, embraced that spirit wholeheartedly. Her dramatic outfit featured a double-breasted suit jacket with a bold, crown-like cape that curved above her afro and flowed into a sweeping train.

She paired the look with wide-leg pants, a crisp white button-down shirt, a burgundy tie, and an amber pendant necklace.

To complete her ensemble, she accessorized with large gold earrings, burgundy sunglasses, and a blue Hermés Kelly bag. Additionally, she had a matching gold-encrusted fan and umbrella.

Her makeup and hair were just as bold. She coordinated her bright blue eyeshadow with her handbag and wore a deep purple lipstick for added flair.

The look not only marked her first-ever Met Gala look but also her first red carpet appearance in nearly a year.

The evening served as a fundraiser for the Costume Institute. It also celebrated the new spring 2025 exhibition, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.”

According to the museum, the exhibit explores Black fashion and dandyism from the 18th century to now. Hill’s maximalist, tailored ensemble was a standout tribute to the theme. It served as a powerful reminder of her iconic influence. This influence extends both in music and in fashion.
