The Met Gala 2025, held on May 5 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, embraced the theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style”, spotlighting Black dandyism and its influence on fashion.

What is a Black dandy, and what is 'dandyism'?

Dandyism is characterized by an intense focus on aesthetics. Black dandyism began emerging as far back as 1700s England, when slave owners who wanted to flaunt their wealth began dressing their slaves in expensive clothing, creating a "dandified black servant" or "luxury slave" trend, according to Miller, a professor at Columbia University who also serves as the Met's guest curator for this exhibit.

 Theme: “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style”

Inspired by Monica L. Miller’s book Slaves to Fashion, the theme delved into the role of sartorial style in shaping Black identities across the Atlantic diaspora. The accompanying exhibition featured twelve sections, including "Ownership," "Freedom," and "Beauty," highlighting the evolution and impact of Black dandyism. 

 Co-Chairs and Honorary Chair

The event was co-chaired by a distinguished group:

• Colman Domingo

• Lewis Hamilton

• A$AP Rocky

• Pharrell Williams

• Anna Wintour

LeBron James served as the honorary chair, bringing his influence from the sports and fashion worlds to the gala. Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James is not only one of the greatest players to ever pick up a basketball, but also has his hands in a ton of off-court things. Quite simply, LeBron is one of the most influential athletes the world has ever known and he will continue to make a great impact long after his playing career is done.

Dress Code: “Tailored for You”

The dress code invited guests to present individualized takes on tailored fashion, reflecting the theme's emphasis on Black dandyism. Attendees showcased a range of styles, from classic suiting to innovative interpretations of menswear, celebrating the diversity and creativity inherent in Black fashion. 🌟 Host Committee and Notable Attendees

Reviving a longstanding tradition, the Met Gala featured a host committee comprising influential figures from various industries:

• André 3000

• Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie

• Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens

• Grace Wales Bonner

• Jordan Casteel

• Dapper Dan

For those unable to attend in person, the Met Gala was livestreamed across multiple platforms, including Vogue.com, YouTube, and E!. Hosts like Teyana Taylor and Emma Chamberlain provided real-time commentary, ensuring fans worldwide could partake in the evening's fashion and festivities. Security Measures

Given the high-profile nature of the event, security was notably stringent. The NYPD implemented a “mile-wide frozen zone” around the Metropolitan Museum of Art, featuring snipers, drone surveillance, and designated arrest areas to ensure the safety of all attendees. 

Ticketing and Sponsorship

Attending the Met Gala remains an exclusive affair, with individual tickets priced at $75,000 and tables at $350,000. This year's event was sponsored by Louis Vuitton and Instagram, underscoring the gala's intersection of fashion and digital culture. 

India's big debut: Shah Rukh Khan, Diljit Dosanjh, Kiara Advani

5 Skincare Myths Debunked: What’s Actually Damaging Your Skin in 2025

 Hi My Angels,

In a world full of skincare influencers, viral trends, and countless product recommendations, it’s easy to fall for bad advice. But what if your skin isn’t improving because you're unknowingly following skincare myths?

image source : google

Let’s bust the most common skincare myths that could be damaging your skin, and share dermatologist-approved skincare tips that actually work. Whether you're struggling with acne, dullness, or sensitivity, knowing the truth is the first step toward clear, glowing skin.

Myth 1: "Oily Skin Doesn’t Need Moisturizer"

Many people with oily or acne-prone skin believe that applying moisturizer will make things worse. In reality, skipping this step can trigger your skin to produce more oil, leading to clogged pores and breakouts.

image source: google

What to do instead:

Use a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturizer designed for oily skin. These products hydrate your skin without clogging pores or causing acne.

Myth 2: "You Don’t Need Sunscreen on Cloudy Days"

This is one of the most damaging skincare myths. Even on overcast days, UVA and UVB rays can penetrate clouds and harm your skin, leading to premature aging, hyperpigmentation, and even skin cancer.

image source: google

What to do instead:

Make sure to apply a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher sunscreen every single day — even if you’re indoors near windows.

Myth 3: "Drinking More Water Will Clear Your Skin"

Yes, staying hydrated is important — but drinking water alone won’t clear up acne or give you perfect skin. Healthy skin depends on a combination of diet, hormone balance, sleep, and proper skincare.

image source : Google

What to do instead:

Focus on a full routine with ingredients for clear skin like niacinamide, salicylic acid, and zinc, along with a balanced diet and enough sleep.

Myth 4: "If It’s Tingling, It’s Working"

That tingling sensation after using a product doesn’t mean it’s effective — it could mean your skin barrier is being irritated or damaged, especially if you’re using acids or scrubs too often.

image source : google

What to do instead:

Choose gentle exfoliants for sensitive skin, and avoid physical scrubs that can cause micro-tears. Look for chemical exfoliants like lactic acid or mandelic acid that work without harshness.

Myth 5: "Washing Your Face More Often Prevents Breakouts"

Over-cleansing your skin, especially with harsh soaps, can strip away natural oils and leave your skin dry, irritated, and more prone to acne.

image source : google

What to do instead:

Wash your face no more than twice daily with a gentle face wash for sensitive or acne-prone skin.

Expert Advice: Focus on Evidence-Based Skincare

There are hundreds of products out there, but only a few key ingredients are clinically proven to improve skin. Look for products containing retinol, niacinamide, hyaluronic acid, salicylic acid, and vitamin C — and avoid trendy fads without scientific backing.

Conclusion

Skincare isn’t about how many steps you follow — it’s about using the right information. By avoiding these common skincare myths and embracing evidence-based skincare, you’ll be on your way to healthier, radiant skin.

Some people tend to have more of salt in everything they eat that is called excess of salt intake e.g. you can have salads without salt or add chilli flakes, black pepper or oregano which will increase the taste of salad , next is no processed foods like chips, Doritos, Namkeens, these are high in salt intake so avoid these. Yes, in  Homemade vegetables you can relish the taste.

7. No Stress  /  DEPRESSION :

While losing your weight don't get depressed or stress because that will shake you from your path so be consistent. Remember only one thing why you have started ?

My Experience with Too Faced Lip Injection :

After seeing on internet Too faced Lip Injection hype I thought to give a try because I'm really scared of usual cosmetic lip procedures or any kind of lip injections. I bought this lip Plum from Nykaa online website.It is like a lip gloss shiny . Brand had instructed that apply the gloss on the parameters of lip area only because temporary redness can occur if apply on the skin.It glides effortlessly on lips.This lip gloss has an intense glossy sheen which gives healthy glow to your lips.After application of this lip plum there is little bit of tingling on the lips like a little burning sensation i would consider it worth if it's going to make my  lips se*xy. After a 5 minutes my tingling or burning sensation disappeared and my lips felt moisturised and soft. when i saw the mirror voila ! it's not looking like my lips it ,it seemed like magic and it really works.Yes, it gives your lips extra plum which i needed.

Ok, so I’ve heard a lot of good things about this product but I’m quite underwhelmed by it. The plumping gloss is easy to apply and leaves my lips feeling soft and hydrated. It’s neither too sticky or too oily but sits nicely between the two states and has sweet candy scent. It has a subtle shimmer to it that adds a little something even when wearing alone.

LATEST FASHION TRENDS 2022 FROM BURBERRY FW 2022

Hi My Angels,

Shortly after  Fashion month  came to an end, Riccardo Tisci   brought the fashion crowd back to  London to present his  Fall /Winter 2022 collection for  Burberry ."The collection embodies an intangible essence that is Britishness, honoring the beauty of the past while focusing on the future, said designer Riccardo Tisci of AW 2022 show Burberry Show held in Westminster’s Central Hall in London.

                         

                        

                   

                   

Burberry’s presentation was hot on the heels of the announcement of a collaboration with Supreme, perhaps an informal way of introducing a new youth-led direction. This was stylistically seen in the baseball caps, logo-ed jerseys, England sweaters and deconstructed trench coats on the catwalk. The collection was a celebration of British culture, contrasting city with country, pageantry with punk, and exploring the concept of Britishness not as a fixed idea, embracing potential.

Sculptural, crystal-embellished satin headbands were worn across the forehead to regal, crownlike effect, “This season, the Burberry woman recognizes the poetic beauty of the past whilst looking hopefully towards the future,” explains McGrath. Across both collections there was a Burberry youth symbol of the moment: a half baseball-cap, surmounted by an Alice band. At times, it looked like an equestrian leather helmet, at others a mad combo of crystal and streetwear.

“Showcasing a fresh take on English beauty,Building on an ultramodern foundation of surreal starkness, bare complexions were emphasized further by bleached brows; only a sweep of taupe shadow on the lids and a muted nude pout completed the equation.

Nodding to the British grandeur of the past, McGrath decked select visages in “thousands of prismatic crystal couture gems.” Ornate decals framed the outline of one model’s face, with Burberry spelled out along the chin—a design that took hours to apply and perfect.

AT BURBERRY RICCARDO TISCI TAKES THE TRENCH COAT TO NEW HEIGHTS

               

"Therefore, I wanted this collection to convey that intensity of feeling and to celebrate not only coming together, but the city in which we come together today; the city in which Burberry grew and established a family. To me, London is a place of dreams, a capital building on its heritage and unified by its diverse community and an attitude of moving beyond boundaries – of pursuing limitless potential."said Riccardo Tisci, Burberry's chief creative officer of the AW22 collection.
