Decoding Shah Rukh Khan’s look at MET Gala 2025; King truly rocked in Sabyasachi  

King of hearts truly knows how to present himself in style. For his debut at MET Gala Shah Rukh Khan donned a sharp black suit adorned with statement jewellery by Sabyasachi. He created history by being the first male actor to grace the red carpet at MET Gala.

Designer Sabyasachi, the man behind his attire said, “Shah Rukh Khan is one of the greatest superstars in the world. A cinematic hero, his blockbuster performances and leading-man charisma have created a legendary international fan following. My interpretation of the Black Dandy is demonstrating his super stardom on a global stage. Dressed in classic menswear with the maximalist flourish of Sabyasachi, Shah Rukh Khan is a magician, superstar and icon. Period.”

We all know how effortlessly stylish Shah Rukh Khan is. The most striking bit of SRK’s dressing were the accessories; the cane, the pleated black satin kamarbandh and the layered jewellery in gem stone gave him the right Maharaja look. And how can we miss the diamond star brooch at the lapel. This man truly knows how to flaunt his knee length coats, just like the way he has done it in his movies. The black crepe de Chine silk shirt underneath added oodles of oomph to his dressing. And carrying a tiger-cane became a fashion statement.

.Some even pointed out, how Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanka Chopra’s outfits were similar to what they wore during ‘Don’ promotions in 2006. But sadly, the moment did not go well with the fans after the anchor at MET Gala 2025 failed to recognise SRK as one of the netizens wrote on X, “It’s 2025. If you’re covering the Met Gala, you should know who Shah Rukh Khan is." On the other hand, a Reddit user wrote, “Hopefully they go home and Google him and see how POPULAR he really is." But SRK, you will always remain the king of hearts.
