“My breathtaking 2025 Met Gala white-forever-gown is an exquisite, tailored masterpiece of craftsmanship. The design vision for the layered gown and cloak was created by me along with my son @realevanross and designer @ugomozie,” she wrote on Instagram. “The dazzling 18-foot crystal and beaded ensemble is embroidered with my children’s and grandchildren’s names. This grandeur of a look combines the elegance of personal style with a deeply personal narrative, transforming it into a canvas that celebrates my family legacy—stretching across time and generations.”
