Shakira has seemingly disregarded Met Gala 2025's "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" theme.

The Wakka Wakka singer made a dazzling appearance at star-studded event for the second time in a row but without sticking adhere to this year’s theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.

For the starry night, held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art on May 5, Shakira wore a stunning princess-like bubble gum–pink gown with a massive train designed by Prabal Gurung.

The Colombian singer-songwriter complemented her dress with a pair of sheer black gloves and a pink gemstone pendant necklace that matched the dress.

She styled her honey blonde hair into bouncy waves, cascading down to her waist with a soft pink makeup look.

Gurung, who accompanied her to the red carpet, made sure her dress was perfectly placed for the cameras.


Met Gala 2025 theme:

This year's Met Gala pays homage to the costume institute's spring 2025 exhibition, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.

The exhibit explores “the Black dandy as both a concept and an identity signifier," said curator in Charge Andrew Bolton.
