Kendall Jenner Swaps Her Dress for a Chic Corset at the Met Gala After-Party
Kendall Jenner Stuns at Met Gala 2026 After-Party
Kendall Jenner, the famed model and television personality, made waves at the after-party for Met Gala 2026, leading with a dramatic ensemble that showcased her unique fashion sense. Attending the exclusive Zero Bond event, Jenner retained the sculpted corset from her earlier red carpet appearance, underlining a seamless transition from gala to after-party.
Earlier that evening, Jenner had captivated onlookers in a custom GapStudio gown by Zac Posen. The dress, draped elegantly off one shoulder, was inspired by the iconic ‘Winged Victory of Samothrace’ statue housed in the Louvre Museum. Posen described the gown as a sculptural interpretation, highlighting the interplay of strength, femininity, and fluidity.
Following the Met Gala, Jenner shared on social media a glimpse of her metamorphosis as she transitioned from the elegant draped gown to the eye-catching corset, now fully revealed. The outfit featured a flowing layer of sheer fabric cascading down, complemented by a matching veil that cascaded down her shoulders, providing an ethereal touch.
"What’s this? This looks horrible," Jenner humorously commented about her early eyebrows attempts for the event, showcasing her down-to-earth personality amidst the glamour.
Accompanying her to the after-party was close friend Hailey Bieber. For the night, Jenner opted for nude sandals and a minimalist drawstring bag, further accentuating her chic yet understated look. She replaced her red carpet jewelry with a gold rope choker, adding to the elegance of her ensemble.
Zac Posen, who collaborated closely with Jenner on the gown, noted that the fabric was shaped by movement, embodying an essence reminiscent of the sea. He highlighted the bespoke nature of the corset, which was meticulously crafted following a 3D scan of Jenner’s figure, utilizing molded leather for precision.
Kendall was not alone; she was joined by her sisters Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner, as well as their mother, Kris Jenner. Each family member turned heads with their standout looks during the star-studded evening. Kylie, in particular, attracted attention with her illusion corset gown that generated buzz for its audacious design.
As the evening unfolded, Jenner’s ensemble continued to draw praise, demonstrating her status as a fashion icon in the realm of high-profile events.
