BLACKPINK Jennie’s Appearance at Jacquemus Fashion Show Draws Mixed Reactions: ‘Why Is She Dressed Like That?’

Despite BLACKPINK’s Jennie making her runway debut as the closer for the Jacquemus 15th anniversary show, “La Casa,”her appearance has received mixed reactions despite the international attention it received.

On June 10, 2024, a magnificent celebration was held on the beautiful island of Capri, Italy to commemorate Jacquemus’ 15th anniversary. The event was attended by numerous celebrities, including Dua Lipa and Gwyneth Paltrow, as well as renowned models such as Anok Yai, Imman Hamman, and Vittoria Ceretti, who all walked the runway.

The event’s standout moment was undoubtedly Jennie from BLACKPINK’s finale appearance, which had been carefully orchestrated by designer Simon Jacquemus as a surprise. Her unexpected presence brought a unique and exciting element to the show.

Despite Jennie generating buzz, her appearance still caused mixed reactions on the internet.

The BLACKPINK singer concluded the performance in a charming outfit, consisting of a conservative front and a revealing back, highlighting her stunning figure. The decision to style her in a bold black dress, which emphasized her waist and had a plunging back, was a deliberate choice to highlight her innate beauty. This was complemented by a subtle tan makeup look and a sleek bun, further accentuating her natural features.

Despite this, certain netizens expressed criticism towards the minimalistic nature of Jennie’s ensemble, raising doubts about Jacquemus’ decision particularly since the finale is supposed to be the most pivotal part of the show.

Several comments were written,

  • “Personally, I find Jennie’s outfit a bit plain and old for a finale look.”
  • “This ending dress seems lackluster compared to other pieces in the collection.”
  • “Why end with such an ordinary dress?”

Despite not being as elaborate as other pieces in the collection, Jacquemus deliberately chose a dress that flattered Jennie’s physique and public persona. A more provocative or unconventional ensemble could potentially clash with Jennie’s image as a prominent K-pop star and representative for the brand.

Despite her outfit, Jennie’s first appearance on the runway received negative feedback for her anxious demeanor and lack of fluidity, with some attributing it to her lack of experience on the catwalk.

Several comments were written,

  • “It’s clear she’s not used to the runway. She looks quite tense.”
  • “Jennie seems to be trying too hard. Her posture is off, and her walk lacks confidence.”
  • “All of her performances feel forced, from her acting to her modeling.”
  • “She looks awkward, like she’s struggling with the walk.”

Despite facing these criticisms, it is crucial to acknowledge that this was Jennie’s debut as a model on a professional runway, and she had the daunting task of being the finale of the show. The additional weight of upholding such a significant position at Jacquemus’ significant event only amplified her nerves.

Moreover, the show’s venue, an old building with uneven tile flooring and stairs, posed a challenge for Jennie’s mobility. However, it was not just her who struggled, but also other models.
