Janelle Monáe flaunted a deconstructed suit look at the Met Gala on Monday, complete with an eye-catching monocle. The 10-time Grammy nominated singer-songwriter graced the gala's midnight-blue floral carpet with a showstopping, punchy design from Thom Browne (the label ended up dressing several celebrities for fashion's biggest night).

On the eve of the Met Gala 2025, the musician and actor revealed her Thom Browne look, created in collaboration with Oscar-Winning Costume Designer Paul Tazewell, and why she was never going to show up in a regular suit.

Janelle Monáe stepped out for the 2025 Met Gala wearing a Thom Browne two-piece look. The trippy look was almost an optical illusion, with a trompe l’oeil, lapel and briefcase designed on the overcoat.
