Bad Bunny’s Wild Met Gala Shoes Prove Men’s Fashion Doesn’t Need To Be A Snooze
Bad Bunny is a breath of fresh air at this year’s Met Gala.
After social media users on X (formerly Twitter) slammed the lack of creativity among men’s fashion at Monday’s coveted New York City event, the Grammy-winning artist stepped into the chat to silence the internet.
On Monday, the “Monaco” crooner, 30, hit the red carpet at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in a custom Maison Margiela navy pinstripe suit with white threads and red stripes.
He nailed the evening’s theme of “Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion” and its “Garden of Time” dress code with the perfect accessory, a fabric floral arrangement, which he held with a leather-gloved hand.
But what really stole the show were his black-and-white Bolero shoes, which resembled hoofs.
Bad Bunny paired his sophisticated look with an oversized beret and diamond-shaped shades.
Social media users on X gushed over the Puerto Rican singer’s bold style.
Bad Bunny absolutely smashed it! Let’s make menswear great again! #metgalapic.twitter.com/jZzZqgsfW2

The “Bullet Train” star’s head-turning look is just what the internet needed after many complained on X that the Met Gala should “ban” men from wearing basic suits.
I’m sorry we either need to ban tuxedos and suits or men at the Met Gala. They’re just not giving. #MetGalapic.twitter.com/srwkl71okE
