SRK’s Powerful Met Gala Debut
According to The New York Times, SRK “brought the Met Gala into his orbit” during his first ever appearance in May 2025. Dressed by designer Sabyasachi Mukherjee, the actor wore a custom floor length coat made of Tasmanian superfine wool with monogrammed horn buttons. He paired it with a silk shirt, tailored trousers and a satin kamarbandh. His look was completed with an 18k gold Bengal Tiger Head Cane decorated with diamonds and precious stones.
Sabyasachi described SRK as a magician and a global icon. He said the design showcased the superstar’s charisma and timeless style on an international stage. SRK admitted he was nervous before the event, but his presence became one of the most talked about fashion moments of the year.
