The Queen of Pop, Madonna, made her grand entrance at the 2025 Met Gala. On Monday night, she was seen at the Metropolitan Museum of Art donning an elegant ivory Tom Ford suit, featuring impeccably tailored pants, a snug matching blazer, and a crisp white button-down shirt. This was a more understated look for the iconic singer, known for her embrace of androgynous red-carpet fashion, yet it still exuded quintessential Madonna style. Accompanied by designer Haider Ackermann, Madonna even lit a cigar as they ascended the blue-carpeted steps. Her evening makeup, courtesy of Tom Ford Beauty and makeup artist Marcelo Gutierrez, highlighted a matte complexion and a striking wine-colored lip.
Tonight’s appearance at the Met Gala marks Madonna’s first return in nearly a decade, with her last attendance being at the 2018 event themed “Heavenly Bodies: Fashion & the Catholic Imagination,” where she wore a dramatic Gothic gown by Jean Paul Gaultier, a favorite designer of hers, accessorized with regal gold attire and jewelry.
Although Madonna’s return to the Met Gala was a significant moment, she has remained active in the fashion scene. Over the past year, the superstar has been actively supporting local projects in New York City and championing social causes close to her heart. Her engagements have included attending a Luar fashion show, participating in the Mother Daughter Holy Spirit event advocating for trans rights, and even joining the viral TikTok trend with the People’s Gallery, showcasing her enduring Material Girl style.
