I love it.

Um God, so the girl he kept that and then the black Yeah, there you go.

Okay mm If you get asked him for a tablespoon of honey for me it just softens the vocal cords.

Do you want us to wait for that?

No, I think we're way this is Yeah, wow, this is it was really about how Emily felt she wanted to look and I think a woman is never more beautiful or more seductive than when she feels comfortable.

She studied a lot of my work in the past.

Um we are friends and I do know her.

So I know who she is.

So that made this particular project really much much easier for both of us.

I mean I haven't told you all that I'm not attending next to her.

You have to your high fun date.

I am fun that I am you and I think what I love most about this look is that while it is very sensual and very seductive, there's a sort of ease to her and a looseness and freedom and I don't know if that comes with having had a child or being happily married or you know where career is going but I just felt this very wonderful natural ease and movement.

Would you even like a little bit taken in there?

Yeah, aside.

I mean just think a little bit and there will be better don't you like that?

Just that little bit of an inch and a half makes a big difference.

Yeah, I agree.

There's also poetry because certainly we've used flowers in all different contexts, whether it supports address or whether it's one as a decoration.

I just feel that she was ready for that kind of romance.

And I'm really excited about it.

Just really, really excited about it.

I mean, it's not only about me designing for her for the met, she knows clothes, she knows her body, she knows herself, but I think there's this sort of ease and looseness and femininity and in a white charm and a different kind of seduction that I'm really excited about for this particular dress.

Mhm.

Yeah.

I think some of its beautiful screaming hands.

It's more deliberate.

It's, yeah, it's more deliberate and it's um not as glove e Yeah.

Or sleeping.

The dress is a more classical, even wear shape.

There's no question.

There's a plunging neckline.

But what I think is so modern about the dress is how deconstructed it is.

It's extremely soft.

It's collapsed.

And I think that combination is very, very relevant, but also very beautiful and seductive.

And the fact that once you finish the dress, um everything else becomes important.

Um the accessories then come into place, whether they're gloves or no gloves, what the jewelry is, what the scale the jewelry is, where the jewelry is worn now.

A mask.

Yeah.

What hairdo are you wearing?

What is the makeup?

I mean, once the dress is finished, one would think that's it, we're done, that is only the beginning of the journey.

Yeah.

One of the things that I love about vera, she was so willing to collaborate ultimately.

Like it's every woman has different things, she feels comfortable and sometimes it's like not something sexy at all, sometimes it's something really sexy.

Um and I think that like the fact that she was willing to work with me on that was just so like that makes the all the difference in the world.

Yeah, there have just been such a wonderful team to work with and beer is amazing.

So I'm excited and being pregnant, like I think, you know as a model, you really are so used to sort of being like something to be looked at and like to be dressed and whatever and having my body like bring life into the world and grow life, like totally changed my perspective on everything.

So in some ways, um I have like a much deeper respect and as silly as this might sound like these dresses are so, so beautiful and the people who work on them work so hard and there is an element of like, oh, I'm just like a body and address whatever.

But I think that what's so special about the met is that you are kind of like, they're the dresses that fit me perfectly.

Like 3000 people worked on it made every little stitch exactly right?

And it feels like a celebration of my body that also like did this incredible thing of bringing life into the world, which I think I just didn't have that perspective when I was younger.

I also think like surrounding yourself with people you love and trust and like this is a team of women that I like a door and my two closest friends are here, my baby's here.

Like it just is a nice vibe.

So it just kind of like the surreal aspects of like going outside and seeing all these people and everyone's dressed to the nines and you're like, oh my God and my okay, like how do I look?

Whatever.

Just you kind of don't have to think about that until the last minute and you just stay grounded in the reality of like the people that you love and are close to, I guess, you know, I'd like to do my makeup myself a lot of times, but I love linda, she did my 2019 met look and it was incredible and we worked together a lot and I trust her.

Yeah, we're kind of going for um like romantic um very like easy but still glamorous, so we are going to do like a big messy hair but not like truly actually messy like for me, like having that kind of like a little bit of undone nous is really nice and that's also like what the look is.

It's it's a ball gown obviously, but there is this kind of quality of like, oh the long, like ribbon and this sort of like, oh I just slipped it on so and then we're definitely thinking like pretty like gorgeous drippy kind of earrings.

I even did my nails with little piercings of little diamonds, so we've got like a little bit of that drippy feeling of like undone.

Oh wow, there's already people there, God is so stressful.

Holy shit!

What?

How did it get ready?

This looks really good.

Mhm.

Remember what I love, that is so upset business?

What is your name?

That that's what you want.

This met gala is historic in a way because none of us really know what the future will be and we've all lived collectively together through probably one of the most confusing and frightening times in modern history and this just feels like a moment where we can for one night enjoy fashion, enjoy something not frivolous but joyful and also beautiful and for that reason I think it's just gonna be a great evening.

Yeah, Yeah, Yeah.
