Lisa looked gorgeous in the look, however, it has sparked criticism online from netizens.
The theme of this year’s Met Gala was Superfine: Tailoring Black Style with a dress code of “Tailored For You.” The event was intended to be a celebration of Black dandy styling, the first time the event’s focus has been Black styling and Black designers.
Lisa’s look could be considered a tailored to her look, featuring elements of menswear but upon close examination, netizens noticed that the bodysuit and blazer actually featured a design.
These parts of her outfit featured embroidered portraits by Black artist Henry Taylor, with one recognized to be American activist Rosa Parks.
The portraits also cover her underwear area, something many have interpreted as disrespectful or even “vulgar.”
Using Rosa Parks' image in this manner appears to be a blatant lack of respect and sensitivity towards her legacy and the struggles she faced during the Civil Rights Movement.Furthermore, it reinforces harmful racial stereotypes & undermines the progress made in combating racism. https://t.co/ue1Z0jniDk pic.twitter.com/niNJF7b6lO

How do you come back from this? Lisa being an ethnic minority in a country that heavily discriminates poc, having a historical figure like Rosa parks worn in a vulgar way is wilddd pic.twitter.com/YWvUQwV8Cz

On the other hand, many feel that the outfit is fine as it was designed by someone who is Black and simply worn by Lisa. The fact that the print is featured all over the design was also mentioned, pointing out it was not specifically just on the underwear.
Mind you the design is literally made by a black man and it’s all over her body! y’all just want to hate https://t.co/q2XoRHzYfZ pic.twitter.com/ayBdgpPn1r
