Sydney Sweeney's Beaded Keyhole Dress At The Met Gala Is A Must-See

Whoever said that the best-dressed celebs are fashionably late hasn’t seen Sydney Sweeney’s 2025 Met Gala look. As one of the early birds at the charity fête, held on Monday, May 5, she quickly shut down the blue carpet in a decadent beaded gown.

Sweeney is no stranger to fashion’s biggest night, having attended three other times and always embracing the theme. Back in 2024, for example, she debuted a shaggy black bob (just for the night) and was nearly unrecognizable.

Sydney’s Beaded Decadence

This year, while most attendees interpreted the theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” more literally, Sweeney referenced a different aesthetic altogether: 1920s flapper girl.

The longtime Miu Miu ambassador walked the carpet wearing a floor-length black ensemble by the label, which featured a generous keyhole accented by a 3D floral appliqué. Sweeney is typically a risqué dresser, making the cleavage-baring moment all the more on brand for the star. The number also featured beaded fringe sleeves evocative of Jazz Age-era flapper style.

Her Megawatt Jewels

Styled by Molly Dickson, Sweeney completed the look by frosting herself with jewels — more than 30 carats, to be exact. All from De Beers, the Euphoria star wore yellow pear-shaped diamond earrings and rings, including a bespoke piece that she designed and purchased for herself.

For her glam, makeup artist Melissa Hernandez said in a statement that she was inspired by Kim Novak’s 1950s beauty. Using all Armani products, Hernandez went for a cat-eye with a graphic lower liner accent.

Her Other Met Gala Looks

Sweeney has been slaying her Met Gala entrances since she made her 2022 debut. Her most notable, however, was last year, when she stepped onto the carpet with a newly dyed jet-black bob, which contrasted perfectly against her mint green tulle dress with floral appliqués.
