Met Gala 2025 witnessed a fashion face-off for the history books as Zendaya and Sabrina Carpenter stepped out in two jaw-dropping tailored looks that screamed: elegance, power, and unapologetic confidence.
Zendaya, aka the queen of fashion versatility, ditched the gowns and took over the blue carpet in a blinding white three-piece suit. Yes, you heard that right¡ªa sharp blazer, fitted vest, wide-leg trousers, matching tie and a floppy hat that gave ¡°Bridgerton meets boardroom¡± vibes. Styled with Bulgari diamonds and her jaw-dropping 5.02-carat engagement ring from Tom Holland, the Dune star turned heads and stopped hearts.
She was not just styled to slay¡ªshe was sculpted to stun. Without her usual red carpet partner-in-style Law Roach physically present, fans wondered if the styling torch was passed. Still, Zendaya¡¯s crisp, tailored look proved she has officially mastered the art of effortless slayage. Makeup artist Ernesto Casillas served '90s supermodel fantasy using Charlotte Tilbury products¡ªthink bronzed eyes, snatched cheeks, and lips that belonged on a Vogue cover.
Then came Sabrina Carpenter, who was clearly in no mood to play it safe. The Please, Please, Please?hitmaker channelled pure power pop princess in a maroon pinstripe corset bodysuit with a cropped blazer. She added sparkle with diamond rings, silver chain accents, and platform heels that could probably walk to the moon. And let¡¯s not forget the train trailing behind her¡ªa high-drama detail that tied her whole bossy vibe together.
Her fit was the perfect nod to the night¡¯s theme, ¡°Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.¡± And yes, it looked like it was stitched directly onto her by the tailoring gods themselves.
Both ladies skipped the clich¨¦s and gave the MET a masterclass in how tailoring is not just for suits¡ªit is for the soul. Whether it was Zendaya¡¯s poetic minimalism or Sabrina¡¯s cheeky sophistication, these queens redefined what it means to look tailored for you.
