At the 2025 Met Gala, Teyana Taylor captivated the fashion world with a custom burgundy zoot suit-inspired ensemble, co-designed with Oscar-winning costume designer Ruth E. Carter. The look featured a red velvet waistcoat, a dramatic padded cape embroidered with "Harlem Rose," and a feathered red fedora atop a matching durag. Accessorized with silver chains, leather gloves, and a cane, Taylor's outfit paid homage to Black dandyism and her 2018 song "Rose in Harlem," blending personal expression with cultural history.
