The Metropolitan Museum of Art cancelled a planned exhibition of designer John Galliano's work following renewed outrage over his past anti-Semitic and racist comments. Galliano, the former head of Dior, was convicted in 2011 for anti-Semitic abuse in Paris. The decision has also led to calls for Vogue editor Anna Wintour to retire for her continued support of the designer.

The 2025 Met Gala exhibition, titled "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style," will focus on the historical and cultural significance of the "Black Dandy." The theme explores how tailored attire was used by Black men from the 18th century to the Civil Rights era to demand respect and express identity. Figures like Frederick Douglass and W.E.B. Du Bois are cited as historical examples of using aesthetics as a form of resistance against oppression.

The Met Gala is criticized as an elitist event where individual tickets now cost $75,000, up from $50,000 in previous years. Tables for ten are priced at $350,000. Critics argue the event uses cultural themes like "Black Dandyism" to mask a fundamentally exclusionary and racist structure that serves only the ultra-wealthy and fashion elites featured in Vogue.
