Kim Kardashian’s Met Gala 2025 Look: Hazel Eyes, Tailored Glam & Colored Contacts
Kim Kardashian has once again turned heads at the 2025 Met Gala not just with her couture outfit, but with what appeared to be light hazel or honey brown eyes. Were they natural? Not quite. Based on high-res photos and past trends, she likely wore colored contact lenses to elevate her look and the transformation is stunning.
What Was Kim Kardashian Wearing at the 2025 Met Gala?
The Met Gala dress code, “Tailored for You,” saw Kim Kardashian reimagined in a darker, structured aesthetic. She wore a snakeskin-textured black off-shoulder corset top with matching pencil skirt cinched with a belt from behind and accessorized with cascading diamond necklaces and teardrop earrings. A tilted porkpie hat added mystery, obscuring her brows and elevating the drama of her face and eyes.

This year’s look was a restrained, editorial shift from her previous Met Gala extremes — no full-body latex, no faceless masks just tailored sophistication with her signature sensual twist: an open back and sculpted curves.

In this shot, Kim's eyes appear soft hazel with golden undertones — a transformation likely achieved using colored lenses. For a similar effect, we recommend:
- Otaku Fullmoon Doll – warm honey brown with subtle glow
- Otaku Brown Sugar – caramel-toned soft brown

Her makeup was soft glam with a touch of mystery: matte skin, glossy nude lips, sharp contour, and feathered lashes. Her glowing eye color pulled the whole look together — and yes, that subtle enhancement matters.
- Ginger Brown – a warm lift to dark eyes, creating soft hazel tones
- Iris Brown Hazel – a rich blend of brown and light hazel
