LISA Commands the Night With Her Bold Met Gala After-Party Transformation

Following a historic appearance as a member of the host committee for the 2026 Met Gala, BLACKPINK’s Lisa took the celebration to a new level at the after-party.

On May 4, 2026, the global icon swapped her sculptural, art-inspired red carpet gown for a look that balanced high-fashion edge with bold sensuality.

The transformation captured the attention of the fashion world, further solidifying her reputation as a style chameleon who seamlessly navigates between experimental couture and modern streetwear.

Lisa’s after-party ensemble centered around a sleek, monochromatic palette.

She donned a plunging white bra top that showcased her toned physique, pairing it with wide-legged tailored trousers for a sophisticated yet daring silhouette.

To add a layer of luxury to the urban-chic look, she draped a plush fur coat over her shoulders.

The outfit was finished with polished makeup and a sharp, defined eye look, creating a “diva energy” that was widely praised across social media platforms like X and TikTok.

The Contrast: From ‘Costume Art’ to After-Party Glamour

The after-party look served as a sharp aesthetic pivot from her earlier red carpet appearance.

For the main event, which followed the “Fashion Is Art” dress code, Lisa wore a custom white Robert Wun gown.

That gown was a feat of technical engineering, featuring nearly 67,000 Swarovski crystals and a dramatic sculptural headpiece with 3D-printed arms modeled after her own.

The 3D arms were positioned to pay homage to traditional Thai dance, a move Lisa described as “showcasing myself in art form” during her red carpet interview with Vogue.

The transition to her after-party look demonstrated her versatility. While her red carpet gown was a piece of “performance art” that took over 2,800 hours to create, her second outfit of the night was designed for movement and celebration.

Fans and fashion critics noted that while the gown represented her status as a global cultural ambassador, the after-party look reflected her identity as a modern “rockstar.”

This duality was further highlighted by her viral photos with model Fai Khadra and a rule-breaking bathroom selfie with her fellow BLACKPINK members.

A Historic Full-Group Reunion

Beyond the fashion, the night was significant because it marked the first time all four members of BLACKPINK- Lisa, Jisoo, Jennie, and Rosé- attended the Met Gala together.

While the members had each graced the event individually in previous years, their 2026 reunion was a major cultural moment.

The group was spotted together at various points throughout the night, with Lisa and Jisoo sharing a close moment in a star-studded mirror selfie that also featured celebrities like Margot Robbie and Ayo Edebiri.

As Lisa continues to dominate both the music and fashion industries, her 2026 Met Gala appearances serve as a masterclass in brand building.

From the symbolic Thai-inspired couture to the bold “bra top and fur” after-party glam, she consistently uses these platforms to tell a visual story.

As she moves into the rest of her 2026 world tour and upcoming single releases, the buzz from this night in New York is expected to provide a significant “pure flow” of momentum for her global activities.

FEARNOTs and ARMYs alike have joined the conversation, but for the Bunnies and BLINKs, this night was a definitive victory for the “Born Pink” era’s lasting influence.
