New Jersey Celebrities Shine at 2025 Met Gala
The Met Gala, hosted at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, attracted a dazzling array of stars, notably from New Jersey, all impeccably dressed for the “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” exhibition opening. The gala’s theme drew inspiration from Monica L. Miller’s book "Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity."
Lauryn Hill, a Jersey icon, made her debut at the Met Gala in a stunning pale yellow suit and cape, complemented by a matching umbrella, golden jewelry, and a gold-encrusted fan. The East Orange native celebrated her rich legacy nearly 27 years after her acclaimed debut album.
Zoe Saldaña, the recent Oscar winner from Passaic, showcased a blend of femininity and menswear with her slinky Thom Browne gown, featuring a corseted top and stylish slit. Hunter Schafer, the star of “Euphoria,” embraced dapper elegance in a multi-layered black-and-white Prada ensemble, while Whoopi Goldberg, a West Orange resident, sported a striking gown adorned with a top hat and veil from Thom Browne.
Scarlet carpet show-stopper Cardi B, who resides in Tenafly, wowed the crowd in a green Burberry suit, making a statement with coordinated green accessories. Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra Jonas, who have a history at the gala, celebrated their shared journey while dazzling in chic outfits, with Chopra accessorizing her look with a stunning 241-carat emerald necklace.
Other notable attendees included Chris Rock and Doug Emhoff, the former second gentleman, showcasing their unique style. With such representation from the Garden State, New Jersey stars truly left their mark on this high-profile fashion event.
