BLACKPINK’s Jennie has become the center of global fashion buzz after wearing the same dress previously donned by Hollywood star Kim Kardashian, while elevating the look with breathtaking jewelry valued at approximately $4 million.
On January 10, Jennie appeared on the red carpet of the 40th Golden Disc Awards held in Taipei, Taiwan, instantly commanding attention with her bold and elegant styling. The idol wore a custom crimson red gown from Maison Margiela Artisanal, a dramatic silhouette that fashion fans quickly recognized.
The dress is the same design Kim Kardashian showcased in beige at the Academy Museum Gala in Los Angeles last October. While the structure and avant-garde tailoring were identical, the two stars delivered distinctly different interpretations.
Kim Kardashian leaned fully into the runway concept, completing the look with a hood that completely covered her face, emphasizing the experimental and sculptural nature of the design. In contrast, Jennie opted to reveal her face on the red carpet, creating a more alluring and refined aura that highlighted her facial features and stage presence.
Jennie’s styling choice was widely praised for balancing high fashion with classic red carpet elegance, proving her reputation as a global fashion icon and luxury brand muse.
What truly set Jennie’s look apart, however, was her choice of jewelry. According to Page Six, Jennie accessorized with striking Antoine jewelry, including a custom-made necklace featuring a 60-carat “pigeon blood” ruby paired with 27 carats of diamonds. The necklace alone is estimated to be worth $4 million, or approximately 5.8 billion KRW.
The combination of the deep red gown and the rare ruby jewelry created an overwhelmingly luxurious visual impact, with many international media outlets describing Jennie’s appearance as “dominant” and “unforgettable.”
Fashion insiders and fans alike noted that while both Jennie and Kim Kardashian wore the same dress, Jennie’s interpretation leaned toward timeless elegance rather than conceptual shock, showcasing her ability to reinterpret high-fashion pieces through her own identity.
As a longtime ambassador for major luxury houses and a frequent presence at global fashion events, Jennie continues to solidify her position as one of K-pop’s most influential fashion figures capable of standing shoulder to shoulder with Hollywood’s biggest names while making every look unmistakably her own.
