Pink Loose Fit Mac Coat | US Men's M

Paul Tazewell wore this Dries Van Noten overcoat to a pre-party leading up to the 2025 Met Gala — the first Met Costume Institute event built around Black tailoring as its central subject, with the exhibition "Superfine: Tailoring Black Style" opening at the museum days later. A relaxed, single-breasted oversized coat from Dries Van Noten's recent menswear, cut from heavyweight pink mikado — a structured, lustrous silk-blend satin more typically used in bridal and formal womenswear — and finished with a clean collar, dark tonal buttons running the placket, and oversized flap patch pockets at the hips.

The Superfine gala was a cultural moment Tazewell sat squarely within: a costume designer who had, two months earlier, become the first Black man to win the Academy Award for Best Costume Design, attending the first Met Gala built around Black tailoring traditions.
