Due to her offbeat outfit, people criticized her but without caring about them she carried herself like a star and ofcourse, she is looking so pretty!

Basically, her outfit was meant to honor the late designer Virgil Abloh who died last year. It was a great tribute to one of the greatest American talents in the fashion industry.
