At only 14 years old, Blue Ivy Carter already has quite a few feathers in her cap. The eldest daughter of celebrity power couple Beyoncé and Jay-Z, Blue Ivy, has achieved significant milestones in a short period of time. The latest entry in her long list of achievements is her debut at the 2026 Met Gala.
Although the biggest fashion event of the year typically has an 18-and-over age rule since 2018, Blue Ivy attended under an exception for minors with parents.
The teen made a lasting impression at the Met debut, as she adorned a strapless white Balenciaga gown. Blue Ivy’s dress featured a billowing skirt and a matching jacket. She completed her look with silver stilettos, a pair of sunglasses, and a Lumé Rivière diamond necklace.

She holds a Guinness World Record for being the youngest chart entrant.
