Lorde is looking quite royal at the 2025 Met Gala.
The “Supercut” singer lived that fantasy while hitting the red carpet at the annual fashion charity event, marking a rare public outing for the 28-year-old.
In honor of this year’s “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” theme and “Tailored for You” dress code, Lorde slipped into a metallic silver floor-length skirt set and matching blazer. But it was her barely-there top that stole the show, with the fabric strategically placed over her breast. (See more stars at the 2025 Met Gala here.)
The two-time Grammy winner joined Vogue‘s Anna Wintour at the May 5 event, which was also attended by this year’s celeb co-chairs A$AP Rocky, Colman Domingo, Lewis Hamilton and Pharrell Williams. LeBron James, an honorary co-chair, also made a slam dunk appearance on the iconic Met Steps.
It’s been four years since Lorde last attended the Met Gala, turning up to the 2021 ball in a shirtless Bode look with a regal crown for the “In America: A Lexicon Of Fashion” celebration at the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
She made her debut at the event in 2015—in a blue Calvin Kleingown for “China: Through The Looking Glass”—and was immediately captivated by the iconic party.
“I do remember that visceral moment,” Lorde told Vogue years later, “of thinking, A pharaoh is lying right there, and we’re in couture. But I kind of love it. There’s tons to be gotten from all of it.”
Lorde (real name Ella Marija Lani Yelich-O’Connor) was hooked after that, sharing her regret the next year that she couldn’t make it to the “Rei Kawakubo/Comme des Garçons: Art of the In-Between” gala due to her touring schedule.
“Deeply breaks my heart not to be there,” she tweeted. “This is a custom theme for yours truly biggest comme-head in all of pop.”
After all, as she told Vogue of her style in 2021, “I can register fashion as both beautiful and absurd.”
