Maluma Honors Pachuco Culture in Zoot Suit at Met Gala 2025

Maluma walked the 2025 Met Gala carpet with his designer friend, Willy Chavarría, who was behind the artist’s statement-making fit on Monday (May 5).

The Colombian artist arrived in a custom floral long blazer that went past his knees, matching wide-leg dress pants, and a black hat with pink roses, making a cultural statement that paid tribute to Pachucos and their zoot suit.

“The Pachuco as we know is the quintessential dandy from the 30s and 40s representing Latinos and black, who dressed as a form of resistance and beauty. I hope to have encapsulated that,” Chavarría said to Women’s Wear Daily.

Maluma was one of many Latin acts who stunned at the gala including Bad Bunny, Shakira, J Balvin, and Rosalía.

Held at New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art on Monday, this year’s Met Gala celebrated the theme of “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” inspired by Monica L. Miller’s 2009 book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity. The official dress code is “Tailored for You,” a nod to the spring 2025 exhibition’s focus on menswear and is “purposefully designed to provide guidance and invite creative interpretation,” according to Vogue.

Pharrell Williams, A$AP Rocky, Colman Domingo and Lewis Hamilton served as co-chairs, while LeBron James served as honorary chair. Tyla, Doechii, André 3000, Usher, Janelle Monáe and more also served as members of the costume institute benefit host committee. Other artists who attended the Met Gala 2025 were Bad Bunny, Sabrina Carpenter, LISA, Diana Ross, JENNIE and Dua Lipa.
