Halle Berry was among the Met Gala 2025 guests who embraced see-through fabrics for their red carpet entrances on Monday’s event. The actress wore a custom look by LaQuan Smith, featuring a sparkling black sequined dress with sheer panel details creating a striped pattern.

The Met Gala has, over the years, become one of the splashiest nights in fashion — drawing an eclectic and ever-evolving roster of A-list celebrities and fashion industry power players. Attendees often go all out on the red carpet, donning daring, one-of-a-kind ensembles in line with the theme and party dress code to varying degrees of success.

Nicole Kidman looked regal and gleeful while walking the red carpet at the 2025 Met Gala. The Holland actress posed for photos at the Monday, May 5, event without her husband, Keith Urban, by her side.
