Tylaâs 2025 Met Gala outfit might have looked like a million bucks, but weâve got great news: You can buy a piece of it for way less than you might expect. The âWaterâ singerâs elegant tennis choker comes straight from Pandora, and itâs somehow still in stock right this minute.

Fresh off her first appearance at Coachella, the newly minted Pandora ambassador returned to the Met Gala after her viral debut last year. And while this yearâs look didnât require a team to lift her up the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, it was no less breathtaking. Tylaâs custom white Jacquemus dress featured Pandora-beaded pinstripes and loose threads, nodding at bespoke suiting and the nightâs theme, âSuperfine: Tailoring Black Style.â
The performerâs Pandora accessories continued the story: A custom diamond-set monocle evoked the dandy tradition of carrying pocket watches, while bespoke stud earrings leaned unisex. Makeup by Pat McGrath Labs evoked Black style icons like Dorothy Dandridge and Josephine Baker, while a blonde updo served vintage Hollywood worthy of her position as a member of the 2025 Met Gala host committee.
But really, itâs that choker we canât stop thinking about. Rather than fight the rest of the look with a dramatic pendant or gigantic jewels, it perfectly marries the lines of the dress with her diamond jewelry. (Sometimes, itâs best to let the simple stuff shine.) Tylaâs choker featured the brandâs lab-grown diamonds, but you can buy the exact same style in sterling silver and cubic zirconia for $195.
Tennis necklaces, especially layered ones, are a major jewelry trend this yearâbut they also have the rare distinction of being true classics. Also known as line or rivière necklaces, the iced-out pieces feature a single row of gems set in silver or gold. Theyâre synonymous with old-money glamour, and diamond-encrusted options can easily run thousands of dollars. This Tyla-approved option, though, offers the same look at a relatively more accessible price point.
Take a styling cue from the singer and pair your piece with a low-cut dress at your next wedding or dressed-up event; itâs more than enough to carry a whole look. You can also use it as a focal point for a more low-key outfit, like a T-shirt and a denim skirt. And you can even pay homage to its sporty origins by pairing it with an exercise dress before a matchâthere are no wrong answers, especially when youâre wearing something Met Gala-worthy.
