The Best Nails at the Met Gala 2025
Share
The Met Gala may be fashion’s grandest stage, but it’s also where beauty takes a couture turn, and this year, the Met Gala 2025 nails didn't disappoint. From architectural silhouettes in 3D gel to the quiet elegance of sheer, sculpted nudes, manicures were treated as extensions of each look’s narrative, tailored as meticulously as the garments themselves.
With a theme like Superfine: Tailoring Black Style and a dress code dubbed Tailored for You, personal expression reigned supreme. Every detail mattered. Lupita Nyong’o’s Tiffany-hued nails, perfectly matched to the fluid lines of her suit, whispered of thoughtful precision, while Lisa's hand-sculpted Vuitton-inspired nails perfectly matched the motifs on her Speedy bag, proof that when it comes to red carpet beauty, subtlety can speak volumes.
