Halle Berry Nearly Bares It All Going Underwear-Free In Sheer Met Gala Dress

The theme for the 2025 Met Gala was “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” theme, which honors menswear and Black dandyism, and the dress code was “Tailored for You”

Black dandyism is the use of impeccable tailoring and style as an act of resistance and pride.

Designer LaQuan said Halle’s dress reflected the theme’s “ethos” with its “exaggerated lines, luxurious fabrics, and sheer boldness.”

“We took traditional tailoring elements, structured shoulders, defined waistlines, and reimagined them with sheer fabrics, stretch silks, and unexpected cutouts,” he told Vogue.

LaQuan said Halle brought a collaborative spirit in putting together her 2025 Met Gala look.

“She knows exactly who she is and has such a clear sense of style, but she’s also incredibly collaborative. During the fittings, she wasn’t just stepping into a garment—she was shaping it with me,” LaQuan said.
