It took the designer 2 years to hand make RIhanna's dress all by herself
The Story Behind Rihanna’s Red Carpet-Winning Met Gala Dress
Quote:
The Met Gala red carpet was shaping up to be a respectful but restrained affair of tasteful red dresses and flame-like silhouettes on Monday night. Then Rihanna appeared on the steps of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in an imperial yellow, fur-trimmed cape that was embroidered with scrolls and scrolls and scrolls of flora (and a headdress!).
“I’m so in love with this dress, but the train is insane!” Rihanna told VF.com on the red carpet. “I can’t really walk in it without any help. But it’s so worth it. I love this dress so much! It’s Chinese couture and it’s made by Guo Pei. It’s handmade by one Chinese woman and it took her two years to make. I found it online.”
“I was researching Chinese couture on the Internet and I found it,” she said.
UNREAL! She looks beyond stunning. Those pics took over twitter, IG and tumblr almost immediately. Over 1M tweets about her and another 350k about Kim's dress looking like her 2012 one. Can you say QUEEN?!
GOALS.
