The theme of the gala was inspired by the late German fashion designer, Karl Lagerfeld, who was best known as the creative director of Chanel, a position he held from 1983 until his death in February 2019.
“I’m wearing Chanel from the ’90s runway. I’m so lucky to have the Chanel team recreate this look, the one that Karl did. I’m just so happy!” Jennie told Emma Chamberlain for Vogue on the red carpet.
