We made Chappell Roan’s ICONIC look! We ALMOST failed 😅 Let us show you how we did it!

We made a custom Look for @ChappellRoan ​⁠ ! ​⁠ and I co-designed this stunning look! Where to begin?! The construction of this ensemble began 6 days before Orange Festival in Warsaw Poland. genesis Webb and Chappell presented one of the coolest inspirations I have ever seen and knew we had to take it on. This look would combine both my expertise and love for historical fashion, and @ChristopherMinafo ‘s beautiful painting skills and creative genius. The idea was very meta, and self referential. Chappell would appear multiple times in the outfit, with each of her heads wearing an Elizabethan ruff including her own.)

The process started with a custom 3D head sculpt by Christopher, and then we 3D printed the heads for the hat and the scepter. Christopher, then hand painted her face onto both The Hat and scepter and we finished it off with bright fiery locks of hair to match hers. Both the hat and scepter have their own hats and Elizabethan ruffs!
I created the ruffled bloomers, neck and glove ruffles, giant ruff skirt and corset/ bra that would later be hand painted with a photo realistic version of chapell’s face by Christopher. The idea is that when worn together, the bra and corset would be her face, and once the corset and skirt were torn away in a burlesque style, it would reveal an Almost great Gatsby-esque set of eyes.

This look consists of SEVEN quilted duchess satin
Elizabethan ruffs piped with color shift silk taffeta, Four hand beaded Chantilly lace masks that vary in size to fit the different heads, all crafted by Christopher.
Custom shoe laces and appliqués, and a Fuck-Ton of love and hard work.
