Even now, the desire for JPG’s bodycon and body-centric wardrobe is still very much alive and well. A wide bevy of stars have continued to unearth vintage JPG—including the likes of Kim Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, Cardi B, and Doja Cat (to name a few). Many of them have worn the famous dotted Cyber dresses or jumpsuits from the ’90s, while others have paired Gaultier’s newly-released mesh tees with simple jeans.
There’s an enduring appeal to Gaultier’s mesh pieces that ties in perfectly to the 2026 Met Gala. Given the evening will explore how clothing can have a deeper connection to the body, Gaultier’s intriguing, abstract, and often dramatic bodycon staples have all the makings of an exceptional red carpet look. Why wouldn’t a star wear it?

The question is: Which famous A-lister will brave the almost-naked style in front of hundreds of paparazzi (and millions of spectators online)? Kim Kardashian—a longtime fan and wearer of vintage JPG—seems a no-brainer, especially given she often goes full-throttle for the event. Cardi B, another super fan, could easily slip into one of his vacuum-sealed garments. Or, perhaps it will be someone entirely unexpected, such as a menswear moment from risk-takers like Bad Bunny or Colman Domingo. Place your bets now!
