How Korean netizens are reacting to CL's Met Gala dress

AKP STAFF

The Met Gala is an annual fundraising gala that marks the opening of the Costume Institute's annual fashion exhibit and also an event to benefit the Metropolitan Museum of Arts. The Met Gala has become known as one of the most prominent and exclusive events in the world and one of the largest fundraising events in New York City. 

Each year many prominent figures join the event as they show off their fashion that is fit for the theme of that year, and this year, the theme was titled 'In America: A Lexicon of Fashion.' Once again, many celebrities attended wearing beautiful attire fitting the theme.

One particular celebrity who took the spotlight this year was the powerful soloist CL. CL appeared in a stunning denim gown designed by Alexender Wang. The classic American denim gown was tied with a traditional Korean Hanbok knot in the front, while CL's hair was inspired by the traditional Korean headpiece worn by Queens. 





Many people were impressed with this grand dress that was matched with the unique beauty of CL and a stunning hairstyle inspired by the traditional Korean headpiece. Korean netizens were also awestruck by CL's magnificent fashion.

Netizens commented, "She is amazing, I love how she matched the Korean traditional clothing with the American denim," "I think her clothes fit perfectly with this year's theme," "This is how you debut at the Met Gala," "This is so unprecedented I feel," "I think CL's presence in itself is amazing," "I love how CL presents herself or carries herself," "I feel CL is the only person who can pull off that outfit," "She's so cool," "I wish she wore something colorful underneath, the white looks a lot like underwear. Might have been better if it was colorful," and "She looks so hip."

The upper part of the dress and the hair looks utterly amazing, but the lower part... Well, it does look like underwear, or a diper. Black or any other color would have been a better choice, especially for photos like this. I had to look twice lol. But she's CL she could literally be wearing underwear for real and still rock it and look amazing. That's her presence.
