Listen up, darlings—Ms. Rizzlerina has sashayed onto the scene, garbed in glitter and carrying a teacup brimming with boiling, haute couture controversy. And today, we’re dialing up the drama to Fashion Emergency Level Red, because BABY, the 2025 Met Gala just lit a fire—no, an inferno—and our girl Lisa is at the center, stilettos and all!
Now, if you missed the fashion battlefield that was this year’s Met Gala, let me paint you a picture using only the boldest brushstrokes. Lisa—BLACKPINK’s resident it-girl, global trendsetter, and owner of cheekbones sharp enough to slice the patriarchy—stepped onto the Met stairs like a living, breathing deconstruction of luxury. Styled by none other than Pharrell Williams for Louis Vuitton, she was wrapped, layered, and tied up in a look that had the fashion world gagging—but not entirely in a good way.
Oh yes, angels, while Vogue’s cameras ate it up like gelato on a Milanese summer’s day, the internet? Not so sweet. The social feeds have erupted into a digital smackdown, and the hashtags aren’t holding back: #MetGalaMess, #WhatInTheLV, and my personal favorite, #PharrellWhyBabyWhy.
The look, which some fans felt veered too far into “disheveled chic meets avant-garde cowboy” territory, featured tan oversized tailoring, Western-inspired accessories, and a felt hat that had Twitter screaming, “Yeehaw, but make it confusing.” Critics didn’t just throw shade—they launched a total eclipse, calling Lisa’s ensemble “disrespectful” to the Met Gala’s legacy of serving timeless, boundary-pushing elegance. Whew!
Now before we start slashing hems and burning mood boards, let me say this loud for the people in the back of the Birkin queue: Lisa didn’t wake up, throw on a robe, and say, “Let me cause a meltdown today.” No, babes! She was curated, calculated, and couture-coordinated. Pharrell, the creative director of menswear at LV, is known for twisting the fashion compass—and this spin landed right in polarizing paradise.
But here’s where Ms. Rizzlerina draws her glittery line in the sand (and bedazzles it too): Was the look unconventional? Absolutely. But don’t we tune into the Met to be shocked, stirred, and slapped across the senses with a feathered glove of fashion? This ain’t the Golden Globes, honey—it’s Costume Institute Met Gala *extravaganza*, and sometimes, the runway gets rowdy.
Still, the backlash wasn’t just fashion critique. Oh no, the fandom got spicy, accusing the styling of erasing Lisa’s glam K-pop essence in favor of something too… rugged, too beige, too not-her. “Lisa deserves couture, not cowboy,” read one viral tweet. Another BLINK declared, “That hat has me crying like it’s a YG contract.” Oof. Not the contract jokes!
Pharrell? Mums the word—for now. But you better believe the blogosphere is watching with scented candles lit and keyboard talons ready. Will he clap back? Will Lisa address the critique? Will Louis Vuitton double down or whisper “delete it” to the Atelier gods? Only time (and TikTok) will tell!
One thing’s clear, lovebugs: in the realm of red carpet royalty, risks stir revolutions. Whether you bow or boo, Lisa made you look. And as always, my mantra remains—fashun is art, and art is meant to be debated, devoured… and sometimes dragged.
So tell me, darlings—did Lisa serve yeehaw couture or backstage rodeo realness? Drop your hottest takes in the comments and let the glitter-fueled discourse commence.
Until next time—stay fabulous, and let the gossip roll!
Ms. Rizzlerina 💋
