It’s Shah Rukh Khan! The much-awaited moment has finally come, as the ‘King’ makes his appearance at the most significant fashion event of the year, the Met Gala 2025.
Shah Rukh Khan chose to wear an unbuttoned shirt underneath a floor-length black trench coat from Sabyasachi Mukherjee’s collection. Shah Rukh Khan accessorized his look with a range of gaudy rings, eye-catching pendants adorned with diamonds that read “K” and “SRK,” and heavy, bulky jewelry, such as choker chains.
There was a tiger-topped walking stick that completed Shah Rukh Khan’s spectacular entrance on the blue carpet at the Met Gala. The celebrity surprised everyone by doing his trademark handstand on the red carpet. Yes, you read correctly!
Fans of Shah Rukh Khan emitted fire emojis and hearts for his all-black ensemble. “He absolutely killed it,” remarked one of the several users. A further user commented, “The man and the moment that he is.” His famous hand posture had many in awe, and he was praised for adding some Bollywood flair to the red carpet. “I can’t believe he actually did his iconic pose at the MET.”
The images posted on Sabyasachi’s official Instagram feed showed Shah Rukh Khan standing at the MET stairs. The famous designer revealed details about his all-black ensemble. “Shah Rukh Khan is one of the greatest superstars in the world,” the caption said. A famous global fan base has been established by his hit performances and charm as a leading man, making him a cinematic hero. According to my perspective, the Black Dandy is showcasing his immense fame on a worldwide scale. Shah Rukh Khan is a magician, celebrity, and icon who wears traditional menswear with a maximalist flourish by Sabyasachi. “Period” (sic).
Sabyasachi Mukherjee’s outfit for SRK was a masterclass in the classic tailoring that characterizes the superstar, not a flashy design experiment.
In fact, pictures of the actor’s regal outfit from the red carpet were also shared by his stylist, Shaleen Nathani.
This year’s MET Gala theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, explores the rich history and cultural influence of Black fashion by following its evolution from the 18th century to contemporary styles. At this year’s MET Gala, Kiara Advani, Diljit Dosanjh, Priyanka Chopra Jonas, and Isha Ambani all wore their finest attire.
