Simone Biles and Jonathan Owens are more than athletic royalty.

On the red carpet of the 2025 Met Gala themed “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style”, the accomplished gymnast and her NFL player spouse aimed to rule as fashion royalty. They arrived in outfits that were unique yet harmonious, each honoring the evening’s theme by showcasing their individual takes on black tailoring.

Being chosen for this year’s host committee offered yet another opportunity for the couple, married in 2023, to strengthen their bond.

At the May 5 event, Simone shared with Zuri Hall from TopMob that our affection for one another seems to deepen day by day. Additionally, experiences such as this are incredibly enjoyable for us, and we treasure every instant we spend together.

Regarding Owens, he always seems to have an additional bounce in his stride, whether on the field or off it, when a particular seven-time Olympic gold medalist is present.

The Chicago Bears safety expressed that their primary focus is mutual support, and he added that this bond makes them feel an even greater affection towards each other. He also mentioned that when his wife is in the crowd, it gives him an additional boost of motivation, helping him play a little bit better.

Without a doubt, they inspired each other’s Met Gala outfits. Simone shared with Zuri her intention to exude an air of “elegant, debonair, and regal” grace on the red carpet.

“She nailed it,” Jonathan said appreciatively, “just wanted to dress like royalty.”

The brothers Deji & Kola, who are from Nigeria, styled Jonathan with an all-white outfit, accessorized by a fur shawl. They aimed to match this look with Simone’s style, and they successfully achieved it. Meanwhile, Simone wore a royal-blue sleeveless minidress featuring a striking white collar and a sculpted train, making her resemble a moving piece of art.

She confided, “I served as a blank slate,” and once the artist had “applied his creative touch,” she acknowledged, “Ah, it’s full steam ahead!

With a flash of his ornate cane, Jonathan underscored, “I was longing for a touch of regality as I strolled along this way.

Apart from Anna Wintour, who has a permanent role as chair, Lewis Hamilton, Colman Domingo, expectant father A$AP Rocky, and Pharrell Williams also served as co-chairs for the event. Unfortunately, LeBron James, who was named honorary cochair, had to withdraw from the lineup at the last minute due to an injury.

Grammy-winning artist Dochii, Olympic track star Sha’Carri Richardson, Ayo Edebiri, filmmaker Spike Lee, WNBA player Angel Reese, Janelle Monaé, and Usher have been added to the hosting panel alongside Simone and Jonathan.
