At the 2025 Met Gala, Tems stunned in a deep blue shirt dress by Ozwald Boateng, accented with a green tie, ribbon, and umbrella. Her look honored Black dandyism and the Harlem Renaissance, aligning with the theme "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style." Tems's sleek braided hairstyle and polished makeup, featuring a glossy cherry cola lip, added to the striking ensemble. The outfit paid tribute to Boateng’s 2019 womenswear debut and celebrated Black fashion history.
