Demi Moore Wows at the 2025 Met Gala in a Thom Browne Couture Masterpiece Inspired by a Men’s Tie
At the 2025 Met Gala, Demi Moore proved once again that fashion and storytelling can be seamlessly intertwined. The 62-year-old actress and style icon turned heads in a stunning Thom Browne creation that paid clever homage to the evening’s theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style”, and the dress code, “Tailored for You.”
Moore’s ensemble was nothing short of theatrical. The bodice of her dress was sculpted to mimic a perfectly knotted tie, while the voluminous skirt flared out like the draping neck of the tie itself. Completing the look was an avant-garde twist: the loop of the tie was positioned directly over her head, transforming into a surreal, hat-like statement piece.
The couture look was a marvel of craftsmanship. According to Vogue, the dress featured over 1.4 million beads, including:
-
22,000 black rectangular sequins,
-
103,500 black cut beads, and
-
a staggering 1,093,500 black bugle beads.
In total, the garment took more than 7,600 hours to construct, underscoring Thom Browne’s meticulous attention to detail and Moore’s commitment to wearing a true work of art.
To complement the striking black-and-white palette of her dress, Moore wore black-and-white pom-pom heels, which added a playful yet polished finishing touch to the sharply tailored concept. The entire ensemble offered a literal, yet elevated interpretation of the theme, blending gender-fluid tailoring, historical references, and Browne’s signature surrealism.
Once again, Demi Moore proved that great style doesn’t follow the rules — it rewrites them.
