BLACKPINK makes a rare joint appearance at the 2026 Met Gala in New York, with all four members attending the red carpet together for the first time in the event’s history. The annual charity gala is held on the first Monday of May at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and this year’s theme is “Costume Art,” with a dress code of “Fashion Is Art.” Reports describe four distinct outfits reflecting the event’s fashion-forward theme. Jisoo attends for the first time and wears a strapless, sequined dress with floral details, including an open back. Jennie is seen in a shimmering blue gown with a silhouette that resembles mermaid scales. Rosé wears a black dress paired with a statement necklace and a bird-inspired accessory. Lisa presents a more concept-driven look, wearing a white sheer dress with mannequin arms attached to both shoulders, styled as if they are holding up a veil. The group’s coordinated, contrasting styling draws attention amid a guest list that includes major celebrities and figures across entertainment, fashion, sports, and politics.
