Lizzo Channels Cruella de Vil on 2025 Met Gala Red Carpet
If Lizzo's 2025 Met Gala look doesn't scare you, no evil thing will.
While no animals were harmed in the making of her outfit, Lizzo channeled the energy of 101 Dalmatians baddie Cruella de Vil on the 2025 Met Gala carpet.
It was all about the black-and-white color scheme of her dress, topped off with a bolero jacket draped over her shoulders. But the true Cruella moment came with Lizzo’s long cigarette holder and the pointed black-and-white manicure. The pop star leaned into the inspiration on the carpet, posing with her arms in the air like the famous Disney villain.
Lizzo finished the outfit with white-blonde hair worn in loose, flowing curls. Over on Instagram, Lizzo previewed the look with a teaser video alongside the caption: “Met… here I come!”
One X user spotted Lizzo’s Disney doppelgänger, writing, “Lizzo giving Cruella De Ville realness at the #MetGala.”
The 2025 Met Gala theme is “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” which also inspired the Met Costume Institute’s spring 2025 exhibition of the same name and explores the history of Black dandyism.
This year, Lizzo has been releasing new songs from her upcoming album Love in Real Life, which doesn’t yet have a release date. During a performance last month on Saturday Night Live, she performed a medley of the title track and “Still Bad,” and live-debuted “Don’t Make Me Love You.”
