00:00Kendall Jenner arrived at the Met Gala looking like an ancient statue, but in reality, her look is much more surprising than...
00:05That,
00:06because it was made from a simple white t-shirt. Let me explain.
00:10Kendall Jenner is wearing a custom-made creation by Gap Studio, yes you heard right.
00:14but imagined by designer Zach Pozen, and the outfit is inspired by the victory at Samotras.
00:21The most interesting thing is that the look doesn't just try to reference the statue,
00:25but rather to transform it into a living silhouette, and the question is how to give movement to something
00:31something rigid.
00:32The aim was to create confusion between the clothed body and the frozen sculpture.
00:37To achieve this, Kendall's body was 3D scanned to create an anatomical bust molded directly onto
00:42its silhouette,
00:43and then later leather craftsmen in New York reproduced this structure in sculpted leather.
00:49Behind it lies an enormous amount of craftsmanship, and on top of that, the draping is constructed with a mixture of
00:55cotton viscose,
00:56Gerzétin removed and organza, to create this effect of living marble between wet silhouette and sculpture in motion.
01:04Some parts appear almost liquid, others much more rigid.
01:07And it is precisely this tension that makes the look fascinating.
01:10And there's one detail that many missed: the wings she wore after the carpet.
01:16red.
01:16I don't understand why she didn't wear them on the red carpet.
01:19because they had real added value.
01:22They were created from photographic images of the Winged Victory of Samothrace,
01:26printed directly onto the fabric.
01:28The idea wasn't to make feather wings in a too literal way,
01:32but rather to extend the sculpture itself.
01:34Also, the big twist is that this whole look was conceived from a white t-shirt.
01:40It is the most ordinary and utilitarian garment possible.
01:43an item that almost everyone has in their wardrobe,
01:45And it is precisely this paradox that makes the project intelligent.
01:49The look directly questions the theme "Fashion is art",
01:52Because at what point does a garment cease to be an everyday object and become a work of art?
01:57?
01:57Here, starting with the t-shirt,
01:59Zach Pozen reminds us that fashion can become art.
02:02without necessarily abandoning its popular and commercial origins.
02:05Ultimately, this is probably one of the most intelligent responses to the theme of this Met Gala.
02:09She uses fashion to recreate sensations, emotions, and a visual
02:14produced by the sculpture itself,
02:16And the result is splendid.
