Simone Biles is wearing one of our most-discussed fashion trends at the Met Gala 2025. The Olympian stepped out in a stunning cobalt blue mini dress. She's always been a fan of miniskirts, showing off her athletic build, and this look is no different. She wore the infamous bubble trend look and paired it with a matching blue bag. She kept it simple, beauty-wise, with a chic glam moment and styled side bang.

Biles is a member of this year's committee, a new addition to the exclusive team of celebrities bringing fashion's biggest night together.

Biles made her Met Gala debut back in 2021. Collaborating with designers Beckett Fogg and Piotrek Panszczyk of AREA, she donned a three-in-one ensemble that included a black bodysuit adorned with star motifs, a Swarovski crystal-embellished mini dress, and a detachable skirt weighing 88 pounds. The intricate design, inspired by vintage showgirls like Josephine Baker, symbolized performance, strength, and activism— all things Biles embodies. The gown's production involved more than 100 artisans working 6,650 hours, underscoring the dedication to craftsmanship and detail.
