Celebrities Dazzle at the 2025 TIME100 Gala in NYC

Catch the standout red carpet moments.

The red carpet came alive at Jazz at Lincoln Center on Thursday night as the 2025 TIME100 Gala welcomed some of the globe’s most influential personalities. After a dynamic two-day summit featuring speakers like Meghan Markle and Ryan Reynolds, the evening transformed into a celebration of style, elegance, and star power.

This year’s honorees weren’t just acknowledged for their achievements — they also delivered unforgettable fashion. From classic glamour to modern boldness, here are the standout looks that turned the gala into a fashion spectacle.

Demi Moore: Elegant in Custom GapStudio

Demi Moore showcased refined sophistication in a couture look crafted by Zac Posen and Kim Jones for GapStudio. Her halter dress, complete with a ruched bodice and floor-length skirt, was paired with a soft cream blazer casually draped over her shoulders. With sparkling diamond accessories, including long earrings and a standout bangle, Moore exuded timeless beauty and old-school Hollywood charm.

Serena Williams: Bold in Black Stella McCartney

Serena Williams made a powerful entrance in a structured black gown by Stella McCartney, featuring futuristic cutouts and an off-the-shoulder neckline. The design highlighted her athletic silhouette, while sheer gloves and a statement diamond necklace brought extra drama. Her signature honey-blonde hair was styled half-up, half-down, and her radiant makeup completed a look full of strength and poise.

Scarlett Johansson: Chic but Subdued in Tom Ford

Scarlett Johansson opted for a minimalist approach in a black Tom Ford halter gown. The sleek V-neck dress with light ruching and a gold detail at the waist felt understated compared to the night’s more extravagant styles. Though her mixed-metal jewelry added interest, it wasn’t quite enough to elevate the overall ensemble, making this a rare muted moment for the usually glamorous star.

Blake Lively: Regal in Red Zuhair Murad

Blake Lively proved once again she owns the red carpet. Wearing an off-the-shoulder Zuhair Murad gown in a rich shade between crimson and cherry, she wowed in a corseted silhouette with dramatic fabric draping at the hips. Her jade jewelry — vivid green earrings, rings, and bracelets — added a bold contrast, making the entire look unforgettable.

Nicole Scherzinger: Classic Glam in Sequins

Nicole Scherzinger embraced vintage bombshell vibes in a sparkling black gown from Zuhair Murad’s pre-fall 2025 collection. The off-the-shoulder fit and sequined skirt gave her a sleek, retro-inspired silhouette. With glossy waves and effortless confidence, she stood out as one of the evening’s best-dressed attendees.
