UK global rap sensation Central Cee attended the 2025 Costume Institute Benefit at The Metropolitan Museum of Art in celebration of The Costume Institute’s 2025 spring exhibition, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.
Cench was a guest of Jacquemus and wore a custom tuxedo that drew direct inspiration from the classic double-breasted suits of Black Dandies. Jacquemus pays homage to these sharp, structured lines with playful elements: polka dots referencing the bold spirit of 1980s Black sartorial dandyism. The look is enhanced with dapper accessories, interweaving elegance with cultural nostalgia.
Central Cee’s dandy-inspired tuxedo in black Japanese wool features a cropped double-breasted jacket, sharply tailored trousers and a crisp white poplin shirt. Superfine is in the details: a polka-dot handkerchief tucked into the pocket, and a customised cane topped with a polished metal sphere.
