Lewis Hamilton has been seen as one of the most influential voices on the subject as he has consistently used his platform to combat prejudice and promote positivity. He has strong ties to the fashion industry as well. In addition to being a brand ambassador for opulent companies like Dior and Tommy Hilfiger, the Mercedes driver has been to the Met since 2015.
The seven-time world champion was therefore selected to serve as a co-chair for the Met Gala in 2025. The 2009 book Slaves to Fashion: Black Dandyism and the Styling of Black Diasporic Identity by Monica L. Miller serves as the basis for the event’s ‘Superfine: Tailoring Black Style’ theme for 2025.
Apart from Hamilton and Williams, actor Colman Domingo, well-known Hip-Hop singer ASAP Rocky, and editor-in-chief of Vogue Anna Wintour will also co-chair the event next year. LeBron James, a well-known basketball star, has also been appointed as an honorary co-chair.
