Tennis icons Serena and Venus Williams brought power, elegance, and unmistakable star presence to the 2025 Met Gala, held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City on Monday. This year’s theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” celebrated the artistry, innovation, and cultural significance of Black fashion.
The 23-time Grand Slam champion Serena made a breathtaking entrance at the 2025 Met Gala in a stunning Moncler outfit that masterfully blended luxury with avant-garde design. The gown, crafted from glistening ice-blue satin, featured see-through insets and a ruched, off-the-shoulder bodice that elegantly hugged her figure.
The pièce de résistance was the voluminous train made of quilted, duvet-like tiers — a bold reference to Moncler’s heritage in technical outerwear, reimagined as red carpet couture. Styled with sculptural platinum finger waves and sparkling statement earrings, Serena exuded timeless glamour with a futuristic twist.
Venus, fresh off the announcement of her new role as part of the TNT Sports broadcast team for the 2025 Roland Garros, brought bold, structured elegance to the 2025 Met Gala in a Lacoste ensemble that reimagined tennis heritage through a high-fashion lens.
The American’s deep forest green look featured a sharply tailored polo top with a pointed collar and glistening embellishments along the placket — a chic nod to athleticwear elevated by couture detailing. She paired it with a unique pleated skirt that played with proportion: mini-length in the front to showcase her powerful legs, while cascading into full-length draped panels at the sides and back for sweeping movement and drama.
Draped over her shoulders was a commanding floor-length coat adorned with glossy black sequins and textured fringe at the collar and cuffs. Her hair, slicked back into a sculptural style, was intricately adorned with metallic clips, adding edge and futuristic flair. Finishing the look were theatrical emerald green heels — bold, architectural, and unapologetically glamorous.
