DO YOU BELIEVE IN LOVE ??
Every tailored piece starts with tailoring fabric. As the dress code of the Met was “tailored for you”, for Heidi Klum who has immense personality and recognizabilty also outside the fashion world, I wanted to make a very minimalistic evening tailored dress, as very often less is more. For the fabric I went to Gammarreli, who since 1798 have been supplying Popes, Cardinals, Vatican and best tailors in the world with most luxurious fabrics. That tailored fabric in its’ raw state, embroidered with the details about the fabric on edges from both sides, was wrapped around Heidi’s body and reworked to a bustier dress with a tail that is uncut part of the fabric. That dress is constructed from one solid pieces of fabric, that is technically a challenge, and is adjusted on the waist with a corset as an internal construction. The dress is entirely stitched by hand, giving it a VETEMENTS Couture treatment. As the DNA of the dress is raw and minimalistic, I wanted Heidi to wear a jewellery piece that is not a necklace but simply a stone that is more impressive than a regular necklace that everyone would be wearing for the red carpet. So we reached out to Lorraine Schwartz, who is famous for big impressive stones, and got a 38 carat D Flawless diamond worth 10 Million Dollars, that we attached on a transparent simple fishing thread, to have the stone float on the neck. Not every dress needs to be a fairytale story…. sometimes a dress should be just a dress
When Georgina asked me to dress her for her first Met, the first think that came to my mind was Princess Diana for her first Met wearing a John Galliano slip dress. As the dress code for Met Gala this year was “Tailored for you”, we started with tailoring and took out the lining out of 10 different tailored jackets and coats and reworked it into neglige dresses, trimmed with lace. After that we cut those dresses up and merged them into one evening gown, entirely stitched by hand, giving it a real Vetements Couture treatment. Archetypal masculine garments were reworked into a sensual personalized silhouette. I wanted to give Georgina that Princess moment. She is today’s People’s Princess and the Queen of People’s Hearts. Not every dress needs to be a fairytale story, but this one is…
real question: pizza or hot dog??
