The craftsmanship of Lopez’s gown is particularly noteworthy. The garment, as per People magazine, required an astonishing 800 hours to create. It is meticulously adorned with hand-embroidered silver pearls and rhinestones. A representative from Schiaparelli Haute Couture elaborated on its complexity, stating, “The gown features over 2,500,000 silver foil bugles and beads, making it a true labour of love.”

This year’s theme, ‘Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion,’ focuses on the revival of unique historical garments, providing a fresh interpretation of fashion’s extensive narrative. The accompanying Costume Institute’s exhibition will display pivotal fashion pieces spanning over 400 years, featuring works from legendary designers such as Elsa Schiaparelli, Christian Dior, Yves Saint Laurent, and Hubert de Givenchy. This selection promises a visual banquet of sartorial excellence, celebrating the rich tapestry of fashion through the ages.
