Kendall Jenner arrived at the 2018 Met Gala in a white off-the-shoulder jumpsuit, putting her supermodel skills to good use as she struck a pose on the event’s red carpet.
Clearly cognizant of what the resulting photos would look like, Jenner was caught pushing a security guard out of the way in an apparent effort to snap the perfect photo.

Video footage shows the 22-year-old placing a hand on the back of a guard who almost backed into her, giving him a gentle nudge to let him know she was there, and also to possibly remove him from her photos.

Some were furious at the perceived push.
@KendallJenner pushing security out the way is so so so rude. Do you not have respect for others.

The theme of the night was Heavenly Bodies: Fashion and the Catholic Imagination, and while many stars arrived in truly worship-worthy ensembles, some social media users felt that Jenner and her sister Kylie Jenner didn’t exactly adhere to the dress code.
Kendall wore a sheer white ruched top with matching gloves and long pants designed by Off-White creative director Virgil Abloh. According to a press release sent by the brand and obtained by People, the model was “reminiscent of an angelic cloud sought to signify Roman Catholicism in renaissance art โ embodying purity and delicacy of a modern angel.”
Kylie, on the other hand, arrived in all black, wearing a strapless dress with a cutout and zipper detailing along with a pair of tiny sunglasses she had to peer over in order to see.
