Met Gala: The Tailored Twist

New York, USAThu May 08 2025
The Met Gala, a grand event celebrating fashion and style, saw an interesting twist this year. Two stars, Zendaya and Anna Sawai, both showed up in striking white tailored suits. The catch? Their outfits were nearly identical. This wasn't a planned twinning moment, but a surprising coincidence that had everyone talking. Law Roach, the stylist behind Zendaya's look, noticed the similarity right away. He was glad that Zendaya had arrived early, securing her spot as the original wearer of the look. Roach's quick thinking and Zendaya's punctuality made sure that she was the first to shine in the tailored suit. The theme of the night was "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, " and both stars certainly brought their A-game. Zendaya's outfit was a custom creation by Louis Vuitton, designed by Pharrell Williams. It featured elegant silver buttons, a crisp button-up shirt, and a tie. Roach styled the look, adding Bulgari jewelry to complete the ensemble. Meanwhile, Sawai wore a custom Dior suit paired with Cartier jewelry. Her outfit also included a white collar shirt, a tie, and a silver tie bar, styled by Karla Welch. The twinning moment didn't go unnoticed. Sawai and Welch took to Instagram to celebrate the unexpected match. Welch even suggested adding homage to Zendaya, showing sportsmanship and appreciation for the shared style. Sawai reshared the post, adding her own twist with a nod to the spirit of Black dandyism and a playful "hehe. " Beyond their matching outfits, Zendaya and Sawai share another significant achievement. Both are history-making Emmy Award winners. Sawai is the first Asian actress to win Best Lead Actress in a Drama Series, while Zendaya is the youngest actress to win in the same category. Their success in the acting world adds another layer to their Met Gala twinning moment. The Met Gala is known for its bold fashion statements, and this year was no exception. The tailored suits worn by Zendaya and Sawai were a standout, sparking conversations about style, timing, and the unexpected coincidences that can happen on the red carpet.
