At the 2025 Met Gala, Mindy Kaling embraced the theme "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" in a sharply tailored black gown featuring a white collar, red velvet accents, and gold geometric buttons. The long-sleeved dress included a slim train, blending classic menswear elements with feminine elegance. She completed the look with a sleek ponytail adorned with gold clips, a smoky eye, nude lip, and gold drop earrings.
