Sabrina Carpenter turned heads on the red carpet at the 2025 Met Gala Celebrating “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York on May 5, 2025. Embracing the evening’s avant‑garde theme, the pop star channeled an unmistakable blend of high-concept tailoring and daring personal style with a custom Louis Vuitton ensemble designed by men’s creative director Pharrell Williams.
For her signature look, Carpenter opted for a burgundy, tuxedo-inspired bodysuit—crafted without pants—highlighting her playful take on menswear tradition. The pantless design, a detail cheekily suggested by Pharrell due to her petite frame, allowed the intricate corset-like detailing and dramatic train to take center stage. The outfit was accessorized with statement diamonds and sky‑high shoes, making her appearance both fashion‑forward and conversation‑worthy. In her trademark humorous fashion, she joked about the outfit’s practicality, remarking on the challenge of, for the first time, possibly using the museum’s facilities during the night.
Her fearless and innovative approach not only captured the experimental spirit of the Gala but also perfectly echoed the theme’s celebration of Black dandyism and tailored reinterpretations. Sabrina Carpenter’s bold aesthetic at the event reinforced her reputation as a trendsetter unafraid to defy red‑carpet norms.
