“In honor of the party's theme of "Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty," Lil Nas X rocked a cat mask studded with sparkling jewels and pearls as a nod to the late designer's beloved cat, Choupette.” ““Just thousands of crystals,” is how Dame Pat McGrath opens the call with Vogue describing Lil Nas X’s transformation into a “modern version of a cat” at the 2023 Met Gala. ... After workshopping the concept together for a week, Lil Nas X and McGrath met up in New York at 9am to begin work on the “Choupette-inspired” design that extended from face to body. “It’s really taken to new, three-dimensional crystal and pearl levels,” says McGrath. It also required a team of people to “fly all over the globe to find all of the pieces” for their creation, which included “couture lace from 25 years ago” and “crystals from Austria” to deliver the materials for what became a nine-hour-long metamorphosis.” (x) (x)
