Highlights of the 2025 Met Gala, and Niko Stratis's new book
The annual Met Gala isn’t just about who’s wearing what, it’s when fashion truly becomes art. This year’s theme is a celebration of Black fashion and style – inspired by professor Monica L. Miller’s book 'Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity.' The morning after, Elamin Abdelmahmoud talks with J Wortham and Tyler Foggatt about some of the best looks and how the theme was interpreted. Plus, Elamin chats with Niko Stratis about her debut book, 'The Dad Rock That Made Me A Woman' - a collection of essays about how songs can help you find a different story about yourself.
