Serena Williams turned heads at the 2025 Met Gala, stepping onto the red carpet in a stunning Moncler x EE72 ensemble designed by Edward Enninful.
Her icy-blue gown featured an off-the-shoulder neckline, a sheer lace panel snaking down the skirt, and a cowl neck, paired with a quilted puffer cape that nodded to Moncler’s luxury outerwear.
She debuted a glamorous rose-gold bob styled in finger waves, complemented by silver wing-shaped barrettes, diamond drop earrings, and Roger Vivier shoes. The look, described as a modern Cinderella moment, perfectly aligned with the theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” celebrating Black dandyism.
Williams, a Met Gala veteran, has a storied history at the event, having co-chaired in 2019 and used the 2017 and 2023 galas to announce her pregnancies. Her 2025 appearance, her eighth, drew praise from fans and peers, with posts on X buzzing about her elegance.
Even Simone Biles, who attended in a vibrant Harbison Studio minidress, was reportedly wowed, as the two shared a moment reflecting their TIME 100 bond. Williams’ look was lauded for its nod to 1920s Harlem Renaissance glamour, with creative director Kpoene Kofi-Bruce highlighting its “pitch-perfect” execution.
Her pre-Gala prep, shared via Instagram Stories, showed a relaxed Serena picking out an American Girl doll for her daughter Adira, balancing mom life with high fashion. The outfit, which took social media by storm, solidified her as a red carpet icon, with X users calling it a “serve” that outshone her tennis court dominance.
