Jennie made a bold fashion statement at the 40th Golden Disc Awards in Taipei, Taiwan, on January 10, 2026, wearing a custom crimson Maison Margiela Artisanal gown—a fiery reinterpretation of the beige version Kim Kardashian debuted months earlier. While Kardashian committed to the runway look’s avant-garde face-covering hood at the Academy Museum Gala, Jennie ditched the hooded crystal headpiece before hitting the red carpet, opting instead to showcase her glamorous styling.
The BLACKPINK singer’s stylist, Sam Woolf, shared behind-the-scenes photos revealing the full hooded ensemble, but Jennie chose a dramatic reveal, emphasizing her accessories. She paired the gown—featuring a structured corset bodice and dramatic floor-length sleeves—with a custom Antoine necklace boasting a 60-carat pigeon blood ruby and 27 carats of diamonds, reportedly valued at $4 million.
Kardashian’s masked moment at her event sparked online buzz, particularly after she revealed flying in makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic to create a full face of makeup hidden under the hood. Her hairstylist Chris Appleton humorously remarked, “Behind every masked moment is a glam team silently crying.” Jennie’s version of the silhouette, crafted by designer Glenn Martens, marked the third celebrity reinterpretation after Anya Taylor-Joy wore a sheer white iteration without the hood to the Governors Awards in November.
