Jennifer Lopez is one of the many A-Listers in at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City for the Meg Gala. This year’s theme is Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty which will act as the dress code for the evening. JLo looked stunning in a black and blush cut out gown, opera gloves, and a black hat by Ralph Lauren. Unfortunately we don’t get to see any new Bennifer red carpet photos because Ben Affleck was nowhere to be seen.

While talking to Vogue, JLo admitted to not being sure about the hat. “I wasn’t sure about the hat but now i’m kind of feeling it.”

When talking about Lagerfeld, Lopez said, “I hate throwing around the word iconic, I’ve said this before.. but he actually was such an iconic figure in fashion.” “What he did with Chanel for so long and keeping that brand so fresh, he really was a genius.”

The “Jenny from the Block” singer also reflected on meeting the late designer. “I got to meet him, and as a little girl from the bronx, who kind of aspired to be in the fashion world, to be an entertainer- to meet people like that was always such a dream for me.”
