Met Gala 2021: Amanda Gorman
Project Overview
NYES had the honor of hand-embellishing Amanda Gorman’s custom Vera Wang gown for the Met Gala 2021. The stunning blue design was enhanced with meticulously placed beads, adding a subtle shimmer and dimension. This delicate embellishment elevated the gown’s elegance, beautifully complementing its poetic and symbolic meaning.

Each bead was individually hand-sewn onto the fabric, creating a radiant, star-like effect. This intricate process required precision and patience to ensure an even, seamless distribution across the gown. The result was a luminous, textured finish that added depth and movement, bringing the design to life under the Met Gala lights.
