Diana Ross Dazzles at the 2025 Met Gala
The 2025 Met Gala, held on May 5 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, witnessed a show-stopping appearance by Diana Ross. The music icon captured attention with an impressive jacket featuring an extravagant train that dominated the red carpet.
A Lasting Impression
Ross shared with Vogue’s livestream host, La La Anthony, that her attendance was encouraged by her son, Evan Ross. It marked her first appearance at the Met Gala since 2003. Underneath her remarkable train, she hid a personal touch: the names of her five children and eight grandchildren were intricately stitched into the fabric.
A Stunning Ensemble
Accompanying her jacket, Diana Ross wore a silver-sequined gown that featured a low-cut neckline, complemented by a wide-brimmed white hat adorned with feathers that matched her coat’s decoration.
A Glimpse Back
In 2003, Ross left a memorable impression in a red satin gown with delicate detailing. Her return this year highlighted both her enduring style and influence in the fashion and music realms.
The Gala Theme and Its Significance
This year’s Met Gala theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” is also reflected in the Costume Institute’s spring 2025 exhibition, emphasizing the history of Black dandyism and its impact on fashion.
Musical Legacy
Diana Ross, celebrated for her remarkable career, boasts 40 hits on the Billboard Hot 100, including six chart-topping singles such as “Endless Love” and “Upside Down.” Her impactful contributions to music continue to resonate even as she captivates audiences on the red carpet.
