From the Chanel atelier to the Met red carpet, Jennie redefines elegance with her third unforgettable Met Gala look
Third Time’s the Charm – Jennie’s Continued Dominance at the Met Gala
On May 5, 2025, Jennie of BLACKPINK made her third consecutive appearance at the Met Gala, cementing her status as a mainstay on the fashion world's most prestigious carpet.
Each year, her looks with Chanel have blended high concept with historical reverence—and 2025 was no different.
Her confidence, styling, and ease in carrying couture have made her a Met Gala fixture, not just a guest.
The 2025 Theme – “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” Meets Chanel Heritage
This year’s Met Gala theme honored the sophistication of Black tailoring and its influence across decades.
Jennie’s look referenced Coco Chanel’s iconic forays into androgynous fashion in the 1920s and 30s,
merging contemporary K-pop glamour with the sharp silhouettes of French menswear.
It wasn’t just thematic—it was deeply rooted in fashion history, filtered through Jennie’s global persona.
A Custom Chanel Masterpiece – 330 Hours of Craftsmanship
Jennie’s outfit was not off the rack—it was a product of Chanel’s Paris atelier, requiring over 330 hours of meticulous construction.
Her custom black tuxedo gown featured:
-
A dramatic satin overskirt
-
A sculpted off-shoulder jumpsuit
-
Jewel-encrusted buttons
-
Hand-sewn pearls and silk details
Every stitch reflected Chanel’s legacy of handcraft and innovation.
Style Notes – Pearls, Camellias, and Classic French Elegance
From the white silk camellia on her lapel to the vintage-style boater hat, Jennie’s look paid homage to signature Chanel codes.
Pearls wrapped her neckline in layers of boldness and grace,
and her clean makeup and sleek hair allowed the textures of the outfit to speak volumes.
The look drew subtle comparisons to Audrey Hepburn, not in imitation—but in quiet poise and timeless magnetism.
Beyond Fashion – Jennie’s Global Influence from Music to Met
While turning heads at the Met Gala, Jennie is also charting musically with her solo album Ruby
and preparing for BLACKPINK’s world tour this summer.
Her appearance at Coachella and ongoing luxury partnerships prove she’s not a passive brand face—she’s an active creative force.
Jennie stands at the intersection of pop culture, high fashion, and global influence.
Human Chanel, Living Legacy – Why Jennie Is the Face of Modern Chanel
To be called “Human Chanel” is more than branding—it’s a recognition of how effortlessly Jennie embodies the house’s spirit.
She bridges eras: classic meets contemporary, French couture meets Korean cool.
With every red carpet appearance, she adds a new chapter to Chanel’s story—one stitched in pearls, precision, and power.
And in 2025, at the Met, she didn’t just wear Chanel. She was Chanel.
