Jennie drew attention for her appearance at the TIME100 Gala, with reactions online quickly splitting between praise and criticism.
On April 23 (local time), the TIME100 Gala was held at Frederick P. Rose Hall at Jazz at Lincoln Center in New York City. The event celebrates TIME’s annual list of the 100 most influential people.
Jennie appeared in a black dress featuring a structured bustier silhouette and a sheer panel detail at the midriff. She completed the look with her hair styled up, emphasizing the overall design of the outfit.
Following the event, online reactions varied widely. Some netizens praised the bold styling choice, while others criticized the coordination, leaving comments such as “The styling feels mismatched,” “I was surprised by the outfit,” and “The overall look doesn’t come together well.”
Despite the mixed responses, Jennie’s appearance continued to generate attention across global platforms.
Meanwhile, last year Jennie achieved a milestone as a K-pop female solo artist when her album ‘Ruby’ placed three tracks simultaneously on the Billboard Hot 100.
