Just hours before BLACKPINK’s Rosé made her highly anticipated return to the Met Gala 2025, her Instagram post became the unexpected center of a fan-led controversy.
On May 6, Rosé appeared at the prestigious fashion event for the second time, marking her comeback to the Met Gala after a three-year hiatus. But instead of unanimous applause, the response this time was mixed.
While Rosé looked graceful and poised, many fans expressed disappointment in what they called a “too safe and forgettable” look for an event known for avant-garde fashion.
Her outfit — a tailored tuxedo ensemble from Saint Laurent — aligned with the night’s theme “Superfine: Tailoring Black Style” and dress code “Tailored for You”. However, that didn’t stop a wave of criticism from flooding her pre-Gala post, with fans accusing her team of underutilizing her visual potential.
One frustrated tweet read,

“Rosé looks beautiful, but this tuxedo is killing it with boredom. Please, don’t take looks from Saint Laurent’s main collections to such events. A little red could’ve made all the difference. Sometimes I feel like her designers are afraid to step out of the boring zone.”
The discontent didn’t stop there. Numerous fans even began calling for the dismissal of her stylist, blaming them for a string of underwhelming public appearances and missed fashion opportunities.

However, not all feedback was negative. Many defended Rosé’s outfit, noting that it accurately honored the menswear-focused theme of this year’s gala. Her slicked-back “wet look” hairstyle, which was also criticized by some, was praised by others as a trendy, deliberate choice rather than a styling misstep.
As debates rage on, one thing is clear: Rosé’s every move — and outfit — remains under a global spotlight, and fans are more vocal than ever about how they want their idols to shine.
