Blackpink made a remarkable mark at the Met Gala 2026, with all four members—Lisa, Rosé, Jennie, and Jisoo—attending the prestigious event as solo artists rather than as a group. Each member showcased their unique style and individual brands, highlighting their successful year with solo album releases. Notably, Lisa became the first K-pop artist to join the Met Gala's Host Committee, while this event also marked Jisoo's debut at the gala.

Jisoo's Debut at the Met Gala

Jisoo captivated everyone in a stunning pink floral gown, exuding her signature charm. Speaking to Vogue's red carpet co-hosts, she expressed her excitement and nerves, stating, "It’s my first Met Gala. I’m so excited and a little nervous too." Her glamorous look took approximately 4-5 hours to create.

Rosé's Elegant Consistency

Rosé stood out in a black gown adorned with a bird motif brooch, symbolizing the year's theme, "Fashion Is Art." Known for her elegant simplicity, she maintained her signature style at the Met Gala 2026.

Lisa's Bold and Dramatic Look

Lisa made a statement in a dramatic white sculptural outfit, expressing her joy in showcasing her artistry. Her gown featured arms designed with a 3D printer, and she hinted at her upcoming Las Vegas residency, which has already sold out.

Jennie's Sparkling Entrance

Jennie dazzled in a silver gown crafted from 15,000 sequined leaves, lighting up the venue as the last member to arrive. She described her look as feeling like a living mosaic artwork.

The Met Gala 2026 took place at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. While the red carpet event occurred on May 4 at 6 PM ET, Indian viewers tuned in at 3:30 AM IST on May 5 via Vogue’s YouTube channel.
