Rihanna Confirms 2025 Met Gala Appearance Alongside A$AP Rocky; Admits She’s ‘Concerned’ About What To Wear

As a devoted fan who has witnessed Rihanna’s dazzling Met Gala transformations since 2009, I am beyond thrilled to see her and A$AP Rocky grace the iconic steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Arts together in 2025! With Rocky as a co-chair, their fashion game is bound to be unparalleled.


Rihanna and her partner A$AP Rocky are set to attend the 2025 Met Gala, with Rihanna confirming their presence. Notably, A$AP Rocky was recently appointed as one of the co-chairs for this prestigious fashion event.

On Thursday, October 24, Riri shared with Entertainment Weekly that she hasn’t finalized the specific fashion strategy for her and the rapper, but she is certain they will tread the historic stairs of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City on May 5.

“He didn’t tell me anything,” she said. “All we have planned is to be there.”

The singer known as Umbrella expressed that although she’s not anxious about Rocky’s style for the special event, she is indeed worried about her own appearance. Yet, she mentioned that her partner will be there to lend a hand, as he often helps her brainstorm solutions for various difficulties.

She clarified that he’s not someone she asks for assistance, but he’s always ready to lend a hand. She added, ‘You can approach him with any issue, whether you’re an expert or a novice, and say, ‘Could you help me with my project, offer some guidance?’ He will certainly do so. I’ve witnessed it myself.’

2025’s Met Gala will be overseen by a diverse group of co-chairs: Rocky, Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, Pharrell Williams, and Anna Wintour, with LeBron James serving as the honorary chair. This eclectic team, comprising both seasoned Met Gala attendees and newcomers, will celebrate the Costume Institute’s upcoming spring 2025 exhibition, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.

As per Vogue, this exhibition takes inspiration from Monica L. Miller’s 2009 book “Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Expression of Black Diasporic Identity”. It will present a variety of items such as clothing, artwork, photographs, and more, delving into the distinctive fashion sense of African American men within the context of dandyism, spanning from the 18th century up to the present. Monica L. Miller will act as a guest curator for the event, collaborating with Andrew Bolton, the Curator in Charge at the Costume Institute. In her words, dandyism is about dressing intelligently and elegantly.

Rihanna has become a standout figure at the Met Gala, consistently showcasing memorable outfits since her first appearance in 2009. That year, she stunned in a shimmering white Georges Chakra gown adorned with crystals. In 2018, she chose a Maison Margiela Artisanal piece designed by John Galliano for the Heavenly Bodies theme. More recently, in 2023, she selected a stunning white Maison Valentino gown complete with a lengthy train and a textured cape adorned with rosettes.

Since making his Met Gala debut with Rihanna in 2021, A$AP Rocky has left an indelible mark on several notable Met Gala appearances as well.
