Though it’s only October, fashion enthusiasts are already buzzing about the first Monday in May. On October 9, the Metropolitan Museum of Art announced the theme of its Costume Institute’s spring 2025 exhibition, ‘Superfine: Tailoring Black Style’, inspired by Monica L. Miller’s book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity. According to Vogue, the exhibition will feature ‘garments, paintings, photographs, and more’ that highlight the enduring influence of Black men’s style within the context of dandyism, spanning from the 18th century to today.
