Jennie Channels Vintage Chanel with a Modern Twist at the 2025 Met Gala
JENNIE Kim made a striking return to the Met Gala red carpet, once again proving her fashion icon status. For her 2025 appearance, the BLACKPINK star wore custom Chanel — drawing inspiration from the house’s 1987 collection while effortlessly leaning into modern couture sensibilities. The ensemble featured a dramatic, off-the-shoulder silhouette with structured lapels, crisp tuxedo detailing, and finished with a voluminous, floor-sweeping overskirt that added drama and dimension from every angle.
The Look
Pearl strands and the classic white camellia adorned her bodice, a nod to Chanel’s iconic signature and JENNIE’s continued role as a modern muse for the maison. A classic Chanel juxtaposition, the design balanced masculine tailoring with romantic details reinterpreted for the Met steps.
Her beauty look was equally refined with her hair swept into a sleek, low chignon, topped with a structured boater hat that added vintage flair and a hint of Parisian charm. For her makeup she wore a luminous matte base, softly sculpted eyes, and a muted rose lip pulled the look together. Together, both the fashion and glam captured Jennie’s ability to honor timeless elegance while redefining it in her own image.
A Night To Remember
JENNIE’s Met Gala look perfectly embodied the theme of the evening, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style. The theme is a celebration of the evolution of dandyism within Black culture, with Jennie showcasing an elegant mix of sharp tailoring and bold individualism that reflects both heritage and modernity.
As a longtime Chanel ambassador, JENNIE’s Met Gala return reaffirmed her status as a fashion icon, effortlessly bridging the gap between classic elegance and modern sophistication.
