Shaboozey Shines at Met Gala with Unique Style

NEW YORK, NY — Genre-bending musician Shaboozey made a striking appearance at the 2025 Met Gala on May 5, showcasing his creative vision under the theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.” The ceremony took place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and featured a star-studded guest list.

At 29 years old, Shaboozey captivated the audience with his bold turquoise outfit, comprised of a uniquely designed cropped suit jacket and matching pants. He paired the ensemble with a black collared tank, draped in turquoise beads, and topped off his look with a slanted black hat and turquoise grillz. He accessorized with David Yurman jewelry, adding to the vivid flair of his appearance.

The theme of this year’s gala rested on the concepts explored in the museum’s upcoming exhibition, “Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity.” Anna Wintour, along with co-chairs such as musician Pharrell Williams and model Naomi Campbell, organized the event to highlight Black style’s historical context.

The gala’s dress code, “Tailored for You,” encouraged guests to embrace menswear and celebrate the rich heritage of Black fashion. This theme aims to foster a discussion on the conecta between fashion, identity, and agency.

Shaboozey, who gained recognition for collaborating with Beyoncé on her Grammy-winning album, emphasized the importance of authenticity. In a prior interview, he shared how Beyoncé advised him to remain true to himself: “Just be yourself; you are unique, and that’s what people will resonate with.”

As the night unfolded, fashion enthusiasts on the red carpet highlighted the creative interpretations of the gala theme, with notable figures like K-Pop star Lisa Manobal also making headlines in her stunning Louis Vuitton ensemble.

Concluding his appearance, Shaboozey looked ahead to the future of his music and artistry, blending his musical career with vibrant fashion choices in a way that sets him apart in the industry.
