I am still immersed in the afterglow of Met Gala 2025, and I hope you will have the same feeling as me. The annual charity dinner that just ended yesterday always leaves many photos that will be named in fashion history, which will appear on the inspirational versions of many stylists, and of course, it will also be my inspiration for the office. In my opinion, the two themes of “Extraordinary Style: Custom Black Style” and “Taiwan” have many similar elements to office outfits, such as stripes, shoulder pads, bell-bottom trousers and classic bow tie shirts.
Even if you are not a styling expert, you will know that these are the basic styles for office outfits. That’s right, this year’s Met Gala themes are not all fashionable, but those tailored and handsome suits gave me a sudden idea and immediately thought about the office matching fashion for the next week. Maybe it's time to change out those basic blazers, wear retro western outfits, and replace straight-leg pants with tight bell-bottom pants: it's very simple, but it can make your workplace outfit look brand new.
In the past, people's impression of Met Gala was that celebrities usually chose high-end custom uniforms and gorgeous extravagant styles, which was completely out of touch with daily life, but just picking up some details from it is enough to improve your workday outfit from Monday to Friday. For example, exquisite prints, eye-catching accessories or color matching and tailoring, here are 6 trends I noticed from Met Gala this year, and I can’t wait to apply them to my daily outfits.
1. Pinstripes (trousers, jackets and skirts)
I see pinstripes on skirts, exteriors, dresses and various formal gowns, which are essential for women's wardrobe in the workplace. In the 1980s, women in the workplace would wear them as symbols of power and elegance, and are still the inspiration for workplace outfits. This time, such as Italian supermodel Vittoria Ceretti, British Vogue editorial director Chioma Nnadi, internet celebrity Emma Chamberlain and Rihanna, all wore fitted clothes to show an unprecedented sense of briskness.
My favorite way to wear it is to wear a tailored suit or trousers so you don’t worry about making mistakes and it looks professional and suitable for attending important meetings or business occasions. Most importantly, whether it is wearing high heels or sneakers, it looks energetic.
