The Met Gala—the fashion event of the year where art, celebrity culture, and couture collide—never fails to spark conversation, and this year promises to be no different. As the iconic fundraiser for the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s Costume Institute, the Met Gala sets the tone for fashion’s most anticipated night. For 2025, the theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” provides a rich backdrop for creative expression, and Burberry is stepping up with a thrilling collaboration with stylist and image architect Law Roach. Roach’s involvement promises to elevate Burberry’s creative expression in an exciting new direction.
Burberry’s chief creative officer, Daniel Lee, has partnered with Roach, whose unique approach to fashion and culture has made him a sought-after figure in the industry. Roach, known for his work with high-profile clients such as Zendaya, Lewis Hamilton, and Venus Williams, will be shaping the brand’s “creative expression” for the event. From curating Burberry’s Met Gala table to contributing to the overall creative direction, Roach’s influence will be felt throughout the evening.
Roach’s reputation for thinking out of the box aligns seamlessly with Burberry’s vision of modern Britishness, as Lee notes. “Law pushes the boundaries of style through his unique point of view on fashion and culture,” he said in a press statement, highlighting the exciting potential of this partnership. Together, they’ll blend Burberry’s storied heritage with Roach’s progressive, boundary-defying approach to styling, making for a collaboration that promises to make a bold statement on fashion’s biggest stage.
Alongside Roach and Lee, an eclectic mix of stars from sports, entertainment, and the arts will join the Met Gala festivities, including names like Angel Reese, Simone Biles, and Janelle Monáe. With the evening’s red carpet design curated by artist Cy Gavin and a menu crafted by chef Kwame Onwuachi, the stage is set for a night that celebrates Black style and tailoring in all its glory.
As Burberry and Law Roach unite for this groundbreaking collaboration, one thing is clear: the Met Gala 2025 will be a defining moment in the intersection of fashion, culture, and creative expression.
