Did Sabrina Carpenter take inspiration for her outfit from Gunther?

After “Espresso” singer Sabrina Carpenter graced The Met Gala 2025 with her bold brown bodysuit, several social media users have spotted the amusing resemblance and instantly drew parallels to the attire of WWE legend Gunther. Fans started making comparisons of Carpenter and the former WWE Intercontinental Champion, pointing out the similar color palette, sharp tailoring, and commanding presence of both figures. Even some users wondered if Carpenter was a WWE fangirl. Sabrina Carpenter’s look at The Met Gala was topped with dramatic tails, a crisp white collar, and towering platform heels, something similar to Gunther’s minimalist red-and-black wrestling attire, often paired with a stern expression and equally powerful charisma.
Following this, WWE fans on social media reacted to the pictures hilariously, making memes on the same. A user commented, “ngl… Sabrina Carpenter at the Met Gala is looking like Gunther.” While another fan page wrote, “Goated entrance from the Ring General.”
But, Carpenter did not take inspiration from WWE legend Gunther and his outfit. Rather, her outfit was a part of the Met Gala 2025, titled Superfine: Tailoring Black Style, which was a tribute to the evolution of Black style, emphasizing the significance of tailoring and suiting in Black culture.Meanwhile, Gunther returns from a suspension after he launched a scathing attack on Pat McAfee and Michael Cole recently on WWE RAW.
