Talking to Emma Chamberlain on the Met carpet, Jennie revealed how she arrived at the dress for the night. "I let them give me a lot of ideas in the beginning, we had a lot of meetings and fittings, talking about colours and fabrics. And this is one whole fabric, 13 metres I think," she said.

She also described how her day went till she made it to the Met Gala. "I don't think Met day will ever be chill for me, but being here last year made me a little bit more relaxed. But once the glam started, everything is so chaotic... Today I tried to put on some piano music to be calm. I am not the hype type of person. I was so nervous last year, i feel like I am doing a better job this time," she shared. 

The Metropolitan Museum of Art transformed into a runway for the stars on May 6th, the first Monday of May (early Tuesday morning in India), hosting a galaxy of A-listers, including the likes of Zendaya, Jennifer Lopez, and Kim Kardashian.
