Sports and fashion are often seen as worlds apart, but this year’s Met Gala begs to differ. The Met's "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" exhibition centers the fashion of the Black Dandy through a masculine lens. According to Page Six, this year’s guest list prioritized athletes—both newcomers and hall-of-famers—like Co-chair LeBron James, who unfortunately had to miss the event due to injury.
With athletes from basketball, F1, soccer, and more in attendance, we’ll see just how well the narrative that athletes can’t dress holds up. Below, we’re tracking the best-dressed athletes as they step on to the Met Gala red-carpet and sourcing their looks.
