The Superfine Beauty Details You Might Have Missed From The Met Gala 2025

On the nails front, glimmering 3d manicures were on the menu. Cynthia Erivo did not disappoint and came ready to pose with her signature stiletto manicure, this time made up of black and red jewels, all while donning a subtle heart-shaped faux face tattoo.

Athlete Sha’Carri Richardson was stopped mid-interview with LaLa Anthony to show the camera her whimsical precious stone and floral nails, not to mention Ego Nwodim’s button mani and Simone Biles’s perfect peach nails.

Hair on fleek

Two modern-classic styles popular among those with Afro-textured hair reigned supreme at this year’s Met Gala. That’s right, it was the sleek buss down, as seen on Savannah James, cascading past the hips in all its sleek glory, and blown-out fluffy curls, showcased by Cardi B and Angela Bassett.

Meanwhile, Anne Hathaway switched up her usual long, beachy brown tresses for a voluminous, slicked-up ponytail. We also couldn’t help but ask how Damson Idris’s super short coils looked so perfect, after being packed into a bedazzled helmet. Elsewhere on the red carpet, Lorde unveiled a dangling fish accessory at the bottom of her slicked-back, braided ponytail.

Megan Thee Stallion took inspiration from Josephine Baker and debuted a voluminous, twisted ponytail that billowed outwards. Diamond accents were the finishing touch, acting as a whimsical yet majestic middle parting.
