Marc Jacobs x Karol G Met Gala
Project Overview
NYES collaborated with Marc Jacobs to bring an ethereal, high-fashion vision to life for the 2024 Met Gala. Global music sensation Karol G stunned on the red carpet in a custom nude-toned gown adorned with hundreds of hand-applied crystals and gemstones. The look captured the evening’s fantasy-meets-couture energy, shimmering under the lights as cameras flashed.
Hand-Embellishment for Marc Jacobs
Our skilled artisans meticulously hand-applied each gem, ensuring perfect placement and symmetry across the gown’s sheer, sculpted silhouette. The embellishment design combined varying stone sizes, shapes, and reflective cuts to create dynamic sparkle from every angle. Hours of precision work went into achieving the gown’s fluid, jewel-studded finish—turning it into a wearable work of art.
By pairing Marc Jacobs’ innovative design with NYES’s hand-embellishment expertise, the gown became a moment of true artistry on fashion’s biggest stage. Karol G’s radiant look not only embodied the Met Gala’s grandeur but also celebrated the craft of couture detailing, making it one of the most memorable gowns of the night.
