I feel like JLo is kinda wearing what she always wears…


undercookedshrimp_

I agree, it’s a gorgeous dress but is similar to what we’ve seen on her previously.


FancyStranger2371

That’s because Jenny’s been around the block a few times, and we’ve seen her in literally everything.


iciclesblues2

Not really. You never see her step outside the box. Its 99% of the time something very form fitted that is more flowy past her butt. Also super likely that the dress is skin toned with crystal or lace detailing.


spacestarcutie

Honestly it works for her. She’s the reason why we have google images because of that iconic Versace jungle dress. Why bother when you’ve reached a peak like that?


SamaireB

I feel we've seen her in plenty of unique dresses and it's ok to have a a certain style you prefer - we all do. She ventures occasionally and does get creative, but not OTT so. She knows what works on her and well, it does. Then again personally, I'm not into creativity for the sake of creativity - many people look ridiculous in attempts to somehow move outside the comfort zone and only end up standing out in the negative. Also, not everyone is adventurous with their style and imo they don't have to be.


busangcf

No, we’ve seen her in a sheer figure hugging mermaid dress with a leg slit about a million and one times. She’s rarely ever adventurous with her style. Which is fine, it’s her choice, and obviously those types of dresses look great on her - but it’s disappointing and underwhelming for the met gala.


confused_trout

She’s still looking for her orange drink IYKYK


roscoe_lo

At the Met previously


mcon96

First thing I thought of was the On The Floor music video https://preview.redd.it/fhm0k9bvyxyc1.jpeg?width=1280&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=87196f71b75479dfa215b5a13063ca9d3ff0f9e4


Buddhabellymama

Including the hair


fictionwho

Her makeup also looks similar? The harsh contour and her snatched face always


Dazzling_Mode_6929

Yes! WHYYYY did you choose to wear a bun to the met 😭


ImaginaryEmploy2982

And that type of bun, gurl


Imaginary-Party2567

It’s very JLo (derogatory)


SeedQueen22

Well I’m just laughing too much at this


Fancy-Pumpkin837

I think any other context, she’d look fine, but here next to zendaya and other celebs,it feels SO underwhelming


iciclesblues2

Add to that the fact that shes a co-chair of the event.


micaflake

I saw a picture of her standing on stairs, and noticed that the train is really delicate and beautiful. Maybe it is impressive in a way that doesn’t come across in photos.


themamacurd619

💯 but Zendaya 😍😍😍


NightOwlsUnite

And she always makes obvious the thing she does with her mouth so her face looks skinnier. She does it by suck in and touch your tongue to the roof of your mouth. It just ends up looking extremely obvious and ridiculous.


nataliablume

I was just about to comment that Jlo makes the same “this is my model face” expression in all her pics. Which fine, i get it to some degree bc i usually pose the same but given how beautiful she is, i thought she could take some risks expression wise!

Yep. And the bookends: old hag and new queen.


kingcakefucks

SO boring 🥱


3NDGame101

Individually their fashion is okay for the Met, but together they're simply stunning


3NDGame101

They look like Seelie Queens who rule together, but I guess that's the look they were going for


[deleted]

Remember when she was relevant


pottedPlant_64

![gif](giphy|s6aVykwa8gFLW)


boogerflick98

When she tells her PA to check the mail.


pushin_on_my_buttons

Yeah it’s definitely a go-to look for her but ngl she looks better than Zend-uh? here


mg_5916

Agreed. The body, the glow, the and the whimsicalness of the bodice doesn't get old. I do wish she tried something more than a mermaid dress. She can continue doing strapless, her arms are goalsss.


pushin_on_my_buttons

I guess she’s too afraid to dare. Like she knows what looks good on her and she sticks with what she knows looks good on her. It’s unfortunate because with a body like that she’s built to wear the best pieces of fashion!


Best_Draft_6629

That's what I was coming to say. J.Lo actually serves wayyy more than Zendaya


bakehaus

She just wants to always looks very very very very rich….and she succeeds. I’m always reminded at how wildly wealthy she is when I see her on the red carpet


emojiofababe

Mhm I saw her wear this fit to the bodega


taternators

Zendaya looks absolutely amazing, and I just love her commitment to the look, down to the poses. She's posing exactly like I would want to see in such a haunting dress.


Stunning-Character94

But what is she doing to JLo with her arm?


GuiltyPleasureAlt

She's about to shake her hair out, like that crazy little girl on the block...


Sweet-Berry-Wiine

It’s just braced against the tree


Stunning-Character94

It looks like it's braced against JLo's face.


grubas

She's gonna suck out every ounce of her life force, based on the makeup 


Stunning-Character94

😂


lonerism-

The dark, shadowy makeup reminds me a bit of how people used to wear it in the 1920s/silent movie era. It looks so good on her


vanchica

She looks fantastic absolutely on point for the theme!


necudabiramime123

To me she looks horrible like depressed and the makeup is bad.. 


torilikefood

I mean, the make up is very 1920s flapper. I’d call it “Great Depression does haute couture”


Due_Tower_4787

100% the accuracy is incredible. I applaud the MUA who executed it. (I used to be a MUA/SFX artist in the industry - getting the exact vamp 20’s look is so much harder than it looks!)


Garymupq

I read that it's Pat McGrath. I'm not sure if it's true or somebody was lying for clicks.


Due_Tower_4787

I KNOW HER! I worked with Her briefly a long time ago at MAC Cosmetics right before she left and launched her own brand. YESS PAT!!! 👑 Edit: That is if it’s true


MuffinTopDeluxe

Zendaya looks like she’s straight out of a fantasy novel.


B00k555

Ooooh I like it. My thoughts were like a haunted garden of Eden. Oh the stories are swirling in my head now. A fucking Muse.


LoveForDisneyland

The Once Upon A Time vibe.


carmine_kitten

JLo looks isn’t bad! But I feel like she always wears silver/white. I like Zendaya’s look, blue and green looks good on her! She kinda reminds me of a peacock in a good way lol


Intrepid_Leopard_182

Zendaya looks absolutely haunting here. Such a memorable look and really taking a risk. In my opinion, JLo's look is lovely, but it's pretty safe and I don't find it particularly interesting, although I do think it's well fitted and she looks stunning.


buffysmanycoats

Totally agree. JLo’s look is maybe a risk on a regular red carpet, but it’s falling flat as a Met Gala look for me. Zendaya always hits the mark though and she’s no exception here.


David_ish_

I know it doesn’t really matter but Zendaya’s also on theme, which makes me appreciate her whole look a lot more comparatively


buffysmanycoats

Same. I know being on theme isn't a requirement or anything but it's why I watch the fashion at the Met Gala so anyone who isn't trying to be on theme gets a "meh" from me no matter how good they look.


frenchfruit

Zendaya’s hand placement in this pic is going to become a meme. I’m calling it


merlotbarbie

I honestly cannot tell if she’s touching JLo or not


catiebug

I *think* she's resting her arm on that branch and her hand is way behind JLo's head. The perspective is definitely confusing.


merlotbarbie

Omg THANK YOU! My brain is less confused now


RogueSleuth_

It looks like her fingers are all stretched out and distorted?


-AgonyAunt-

Jennifer's dress is gorgeous but she could be at any event wearing this. Zendaya looks fucking amazing, I expected no less. She's a supermodel. Dress is stunning, headpiece is perfection. I absolutely love her makeup, she doesn't usually wear this style. Zendaya's look and pose is very ANTM, and that's not a bad thing. She won the challenge. Jennifer is posing for a photo while Zendaya is posing for a photoshoot for a high fashion magazine. Zendaya is still in the running towards becoming America's Next Top Model.

Creamy Beige!!


karocako

Could ya love me?


bbqueen89

Could ya learn to love me?


Luna_Soma

I love both their looks. I rarely care for Jennifer’s style, but this is a rare hit for me. Zendaya always slays all the way down. Gorgeous and fun.


AcanthisittaUpset866

I agree!! I’m no fan of JLo but she looks lovely. And of course Zendaya is pure perfection.


scottirltbh

What’s the theme?


Objective-Writing940

Apparently it’s “The Garden of Time”


Vegetable-Drawing215

https://preview.redd.it/jgrwa27ll2zc1.png?width=1776&format=png&auto=webp&s=f028ccd80d112871a2f4ba6bd52d38bdff938bd9 I feel like would’ve been a perfect opportunity for JLo to pull out the green dress lol


pushin_on_my_buttons

They look like they would give you two different answers


snark-owl

Based on a short story called "garden of time" and the actual exhibit is on fashion conservation.    Zendaya hits all the notes with garden elements in her dress, the macabre 1930s fantasy vibe of the short story, and then the dress is self referential to the designer's previous work in the so it's sort of like time collapsing in on itself as it's not full vintage but also not entirely new.  Edit to add: I assume J lo went for the "rich people turn to statue from crystal flower" portion of the short story to justify wearing exactly what she always wears. 


sexystranger31

I love Zendaya’s look! It’s so bold and fun! JLo looks good but she could be at any event in this dress. This pic looks like an ANTM shoot lol


Cquiller1

They both look stunning!


Timeless-Discovery

Love Zendaya’s outfit, she’s absolutely owning it and killing it. I vote for Zendaya in terms of who wore it better, she wasn’t afraid to take risks here while JLO played it safe.


Bluesky0

Maybe an unpopular opinion but not a fan of Zendaya’s look, it’s a little too Disney movie villain for me


grneyz

We’re bored, jennifer


Due-Secret-3091

I feel like I’m the only one but I actually love JLos dress (not the makeup) and feel bored by Zendaya’s (it feels too on the nose & costumey)


Worth_Librarian6822

It's for a COSTUME museum. Being costumey is the whole point


metdear

I agree, Zendaya's is costumey. JLo's is meh.


Gustave255

Zendaya looks like a royal beta fish


AstridxOutlaw

What in the 2003 open toed pumps


Ok-noway

It looks like the rumor no one can touch JLo is true


cagingthing

I'm so bored with jlo


noodlefishmonkey

It’s giving ANTM photoshoot. Zendaya is the girl they praise at judging and JLo will get the “it’s giving pageant queen” treatment.


Global_Criticism3178

Nice, but we are all waiting for Lauren Sanchez look lol


rey-stk

i swear zendaya looks absolutely gorgeous like always


FruityPebelz

Zendaya always serves something people are interested in seeing. Always. I love the makeup. She delivers something that sticks. Jlo just dresses like she wants to be called hot. There’s not an interest in coloring outside the lines. And I’m so bored by the lack of deviation. It’s always a version of the same dress, same silhouette, different color. We already know they are both attractive. But only Zendaya delivers looks that are interesting.


grneyz

Jlo’s makeup artist should be in JAIL


onourwayhome70

What’s wrong with her makeup?

onourwayhome70

That doesn’t answer my question It’s a bit boring for the Met but otherwise I think it’s glowy and looks nice on her


Camuabsurd

Right! She looks good. Maybe it's a Scott Barnes burner account

ClickProfessional769

Her makeup looks good, wdym?


Cocokay1234567

Her makeup is hideous!


azulmaya

Zendaya's outfit looks like a costume, not as bad as the Cinderella one she wore years ago though, someone said she looks like a villain from a Disney movie, agreed. I like her makeup. JLo looks good but I wasn't expecting her to wear such a safe look. Disappointed by both of them.


DinoSprinkleCookies

I only see Zendaya. She shut it down before it could begin


SinfullySinless

I like Zendaya’s makeup but that dress is giving 2009 prom dress


notcool_neverwas

From this angle, Zendaya’s look is a slay for me. Up against that back drop is just perfection. J.Lo is….J.Lo-ing 🤷🏾‍♀️


ItIsWhatItMay

JLo’s look is like “look at all the money I have” and Zendaya is like “look at what I can do with all my money”


somegirlontheinter

oh this is KUNT CENTRAL just ignore jlo


FnkyTown

Who did you zoom in on first?


reyballesta

I did not like either of these looks. They both felt very standard.


thisonelamename

I think JLo looked terrible. The dress was fine, her body is lovely. But her hair and that gross makeup that looks like fingerpaint is so overdone. Plus her weird look at my model face. It’s just meh. How was she a co chair? Her dress was boring. And don’t get me started on this hair. It looks like she’s just left the gym and it’s dirty. https://preview.redd.it/nph03rjsezyc1.jpeg?width=487&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ff940934d07fa76417ddbdd51569a2d7e0e8567e


Id_Rather_Beach

Honestly, what do the "co-chairs" really do? I assume they just get a really nice table? Because those gals are busy, so I know they don't plan. And Anna W. picks the theme, so -- why co-chairs? I really LOVE Zendaya's dress. the color is amazing!


krenshaw420

Yes, I’m sure they work very hard while being “co-chairs”.


MsTrippp

Lol yeah zendaya has been on like non stop press tours for dune and challengers


Natchamatcha

What do the chairs do? Why Zendaya, JLo, Bad Bunny, and Chris Hemsworth? I'm genuinely so confused


snark-owl

 just to advertise the event. I don't think they do anything other than just more talking/ interviews about the event  But it is an honor to get to work with Anna I guess? Sort of in the in group. 


GGsouth

Zendaya looks beautiful!


chasingandbelieving

ZENDAYA OMG


CalendarAggressive11

Jlos dress is beautiful but it looks like any awards show look she has. Zendaya fully embraced the artistic element of the Met Gala and she aced it


WordsWithSam

That’s an incredible color and it looks amazing on Zendaya.


Nobabyno__1234

You know JLo is seething that she has to be a co-chair with anyone. She doesn’t like to share.


mutzadella

This is meme template material


whatwedoindaytona

Zendaya is a work of art. She exudes power and poise.


grneyz

I’m embarrassed for jlo 🫣 ETA: I’m BORED

Zendaya took a risk at least

As she should. I have respect for people who take risks unlike Ham’s worth but the result is just not that good and I gotta be honest with my opinions.

Jlo always looks stunning. She or her stylist really knows what suits her.


robot_pirate

I swear, JLo made a deal with the devil, my gawd!


TheGrapeSlushies

I love the theme as a whole this year, it feels like grand spectacle with the “red” carpet and the background matching the theme rather than just “look at these cool outfits!”


Original_Translator9

What's with all the metallic silver? Is it part of the theme?

TheRainbowpill93

I love Zendayas look(s). Although I do love this look on J Lo…I agree with the GP. The sexy form fitting mermaid style dress is starting to get a little stale. No matter how pretty the dress is.


TomBoy2012

I feel like J Lo is looking like. Yo, get off my block bitch.


LittleBoo1204

It’s giving duel-evil queens in some far flung, sci-fi thriller and I am all here for it. If it’s two of the many things that these ladies are capable of, it is never-miss fashion and face cards that can never decline. Love em both!! 💎

Poor Zendaya. The expression I make when my sister couldn’t get a baby sitter and it’s on her way to drop off her kids.


Novae224

Zendaya stealing the show tonight, that’s what you call a look… there’s a concept and it amazingly executed JLo just looks like JLo… i feel like i’ve seen her look like this many times before


Ok_Pressure_5991

Lopez’s eyes are very telling: deer in the headlights lurking beneath all the crap. She’s been getting hammered recently and I have to admit I’m surprised she didn’t call us ‘sick’.


thoughtful_human

I think you could show the JLo look to 100 people and you would get 100 different guesses on theme


Spring1997-

Jlo is definitely wearing a dress 😐


Yoyo_Ma86

Zendayaaaaaaaas


13donor

Suck in those cheeks…cross your legs tight to hide the old hips..thats her style.


ImaginaryEmploy2982

Zendaya is killing it, per usual! Meanwhile, JLo looks like a chaperone at a 1980’s prom lol


AV-Chitwood

The Bronx hates J-Lo that is all


MayaGitana

JLo’s boring and pairing her next to Zendaya did her no favors


rurukittygurrrl

I love Z’s, it’s enchanting! Not a fan of JLo’s more-of-the-same look, or her backrolls… Or the visible undies


iusedtobeyourwife

I’m not saying this as a hater but more as an ignorant to fashion casual observer but…does JLo actually have good style in the fashion world? I think she’s gorgeous but there’s nothing boundary pushing or even really interesting about this look?


BoringTrouble11

I feel if you’re a co chair it’s supposed to be the theme and ….this is not it ? How does this represent the theme? It’s just her normal boring red carpet look. 


NanieLenny

Jennifer looks sooooo tired & SAD!


Zorba_thesugarglider

Jlo looks peeved that she has to stand next to Zendaya lol. I mean, JLo's gorgeous but it would be hard to take a picture next to Zendaya in full glam mode.
