From burning rubber on the Formula 1 circuit to redefining style on the global stage, Lewis Hamilton continues to shatter boundaries. The seven-time world champion and fashion icon has been tapped to co-host the 2025 Met Gala—a prestigious honor that cements his dual legacy as a motorsport legend and cultural trailblazer. Yet, the journey to the Met Gala spotlight isn’t all glitz and glamour, as Hamilton revealed the nerve-wracking process behind the scenes.

A Fashion Pioneer Meets the Met Gala

Since making his Met Gala debut in 2015, Hamilton has become a fixture at the star-studded event, renowned for his bold and innovative style. His commitment to championing diversity and inclusivity in both fashion and motorsport caught the attention of Met Gala chairperson Anna Wintour, who invited him to co-host the 2025 edition. For Hamilton, this is a dream come true—but with a hefty dose of pressure.

“On one side, it’s really exciting. On the other side, it’s nerve-wracking,” Hamilton admitted. “What are you going to wear? How are you going to show up? The platform is massive, and there’s a lot of work to do to create opportunities for others.”

The 39-year-old’s tireless efforts to merge fashion with advocacy resonate deeply, and his appointment as co-chair reflects the Met Gala’s evolving mission to spotlight trailblazers who use their influence to inspire change.

The Double Life of an F1 Legend

Balancing the demands of Formula 1 with his burgeoning fashion career is no small feat, and Hamilton openly shared the challenges of staying plugged into the fast-paced fashion industry.
“Keeping your ear on the ground in the fashion world while racing is tough,” he explained. “You have to stay on top of all the collections, the textiles, and the materials designers are using—it’s double the work. But I love it.”

Hamilton’s dedication to fashion has transformed his style from “urban chic” to a dynamic, mood-driven aesthetic that continues to evolve as he discovers new designers and trends.

A Star-Studded Affair with NBA Power

Hamilton won’t be tackling the Met Gala duties alone. He’ll share the stage with an NBA megastar, adding another layer of star power to the event. Together, they aim to make the 2025 Gala one of the most memorable in its illustrious history, blending Hamilton’s unique vision with his co-chair’s cultural influence.

Ferrari Awaits: Hamilton’s Next Chapter

Amid the fashion frenzy, Hamilton is gearing up for his debut season with Ferrari, marking a new chapter in his illustrious racing career. The Brit will take the SF-23 for a spin at Ferrari’s private Fiorano test track next month, where he’s expected to receive a hero’s welcome from the passionate Tifosi.

Hamilton will also debut Ferrari’s livery at the F1 75 event in London before heading back to Italy for the team’s official car reveal. Sporting Ferrari red for the first time, the seven-time champion is poised to embrace a new challenge on the grid while juggling his growing influence in the fashion world.

From the Track to the Runway

Lewis Hamilton’s rise to co-hosting the Met Gala is a testament to his relentless drive and creativity, both on and off the track. As he gears up to take center stage at the world’s most glamorous event and faces a new racing chapter with Ferrari, one thing is certain: Hamilton’s star power knows no limits.
