Your support makes all the difference.Lily Allen has joined fans in comparing Kylie Jenner’s Met Gala look to an outfit she wore to V Festival in 2006.
Jenner was one of the most-talked about names attending Monday night’s (2 May) celebration of fashion at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.
The model and reality TV star attended alongside her sisters, sporting a white ruffled wedding dress from Off-White with a white cap and mesh veil for the “Gilded Glamour” dress code.
While many fans were left baffled by Jenner’s style choice, others immediately compared it to a bridal-inspired look worn by Allen in her peak “indie sleaze” era, at V Festival in 2006.
Performing at the festival, the “Smile” singer memorably wore a white strapless dress and snapback.
One fan spotted the similarities between the two outfits, posting a picture to Instagram of the looks side by side with the caption: “@kyliejenner is giving off @lilyallen at the 2006 V Festival vibes.”
Allen reposted the picture to her own Instagram Story, simply captioning it: “Lol.”
The British singer also was in attendance at the annual event, alongside her husband, Stranger Things star David Harbour. Allen wore Chanel.
