Met Gala 2019: Cardi B
Project Overview
Inspired by Susan Sontag’s iconic 1964 essay, the 2019 Met Gala theme was, “Camp: Notes on Fashion”. Cardi B’s larger-than-life look, designed by Thom Browne, fully embraced the exaggerated and playful spirit of “camp.”
Elevating Cardi B’s Showstopping Look at the 2019 Met Gala with Expert Shirring
NYES played a crucial role, completing the complex design with a detailed shirring technique. By shirring the material, we were able to create a dramatic, full-bodied silhouette, giving the garment the rich texture and volume that made it stand out on the red carpet. The technique added depth and structure to the already extraordinary design. Ensuring that Cardi B’s Met Gala look was both a showstopper and a perfect homage to the whimsical, extravagant essence of “Camp”.
