On May 5th, the annual Met Gala was held at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. This year’s theme, “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style,” celebrated the rich history and influence of Black fashion and tailoring through the decades.
As always, the star-studded event attracted global celebrities, who graced the red carpet in elegant and statement-making suits with their own creative twist. Among them was Jennie of BLACKPINK, who made headlines with her unique interpretation of the theme. She was joined by fellow BLACKPINK members Rosé and Lisa, marking another powerful appearance by the global K-pop icons.

Elegance. Innovation. Heritage. S.COUPS steals the spotlight at the Met in a custom BOSS creation that echoes a Korean hanbok jeogori jacket, paired with a stunning, floor-length coat

S.Coups made a memorable impression in an all-muted gray ensemble, which blended elements of a modern suit with the silhouette and elegance of a hanbok, Korea’s traditional attire. Looking dashing and composed, S.Coups was all smiles as he posed for the cameras at the gala.
Online, fans and fashion enthusiasts engaged in discussions about his outfit. Many praised the design of his hanbok-inspired suit while others debated whether the look fully captured the essence of this year’s theme.
- Just a reminder S.Coups is the first HYBE idol to attend the Met Gala
- They didn’t film him in the live, so rude
- Whoever the designer in Boss, they really slayed, this is such an amazing take on modern Jeogori (Hanbok Garment). S.Coups looks so damn good.
- I DID NOT SEE HIM IN THE VOGUE LIVE
- JUST A REMINDER HE’S THE FIRST HYBE ALPHA ULTRA OMEGA LEADER. S.COUPS is the first ever one who attended the Met gala under HYBE company.
- The outfit is lowkey giving Star Wars Jedi vibes
- The theme is tailored and showing up in a Jedi robe is crazy.
- He is from Alchemy of Souls
-
Why is he dressed like he just came from the Star Wars set?
- I’m not saying anything’s wrong with it. It looks great, it just literally looks like what they wear in Star Wars.
- The amount of people critiquing him is crazy. Acting like they have a chance to get there or even reaching half of his popularity
- So gorgeous and they didn’t even SHOW HIM WALKING THE CARPET
- Whoever designed that was a genius omg the blazer/hanbok mix is beautiful.
