At the 2025 Met Gala, held on May 5 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, Kendall Jenner and Hailey Bieber inadvertently showcased similar fashion choices, leading to a lighthearted exchange between the two close friends. Both donned tailored blazers, aligning with the event’s theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” which celebrated Black dandyism and its cultural evolution.
Kendall Jenner, 29, wore a custom gray skirt suit by designer Torishéju, featuring a plunging neckline and a floor-length skirt with a train. She accessorized with a statement diamond choker necklace and matching earrings, completing the look with sleek, tucked-back hair. Her ensemble paid homage to the 1920s Harlem Renaissance, reflecting the evening’s theme.
Hailey Bieber, 28, opted for a bold Saint Laurent mini dress blazer, paired with strappy platform heels and silver jewelry. Her outfit was a modern take on classic tailoring, resonating with the gala’s dress code, “Tailored For You.”
Upon realizing their similar attire, the duo shared a playful moment on the red carpet. In an interview with Vogue’s Emma Chamberlain, Kendall remarked, “I feel like we have similar taste sometimes,” to which Hailey responded, “A lot of people say we’re like golden retriever, black cat. And I think that’s very, very, very true.”
When asked what they would borrow from each other’s closets, Kendall quickly pointed to Hailey’s extensive leather jacket collection, joking, “I’ve never seen someone have so many leather jackets in my life, but they’re all amazing.” Hailey laughed, admitting, “My collection is—I’m unwell.”
Hailey’s appearance marked her return to the Met Gala after a two-year hiatus, during which she focused on her beauty brand, Rhode, and welcomed her son, Jack, with husband Justin Bieber. Notably, Hailey attended the event solo, while Justin opted to watch the NHL playoffs at home, later sharing his support for Hailey’s look on social media.
The 2025 Met Gala, co-chaired by A$AP Rocky, Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton, Pharrell Williams, and Anna Wintour, highlighted the influence of Black style and tailoring throughout history. The event featured numerous celebrities embracing the theme with creative interpretations, making it a memorable night in fashion.
