The Met Gala is old news. 2025 is all about the Metquarter Gala, or as literally everyone else calls it – Ladies Day. One of the most highly anticipated events in any Scouse girl’s social calendar, Ladies Day isn’t just about the thrill of the races, it’s about turning heads, making unforgettable fashion statements, and feeling your most confident self – and Metquarter is the one-stop-shop on getting ready for the big day.
