Megan Thee Stallion invited WWD along as she prepped for the Gaurav Gupta couture show. She wore a cascading chain dress, soft makeup and serpentine braids.
“We’re giving ‘primitive space Cleopatra,’” she said of her look, adding that it was a nickname Gupta came up with himself.
“My chakras are aligned as you can see, my nails are pointing at me because I love myself,” she said, noting her unique manicure. The nails were indeed inverted and painted silver, creating an otherworldly, claw-like look. “We wanted the hair to match the headpiece and then the makeup,” said Stallion. “We didn’t want to do too dramatic of makeup, because the dress is so fire and the headpiece is so fire.”The metallic piece swooped around the head with chains encircling the eyes for a dramatic peekaboo effect. It was created to pair with the Gupta dress in collaboration with Object & Dawn.
The dramatic drape chain gown required precision, and it took a village to build it Wednesday morning, with a suite full of staff in her hotel making sure the look was just right. Stallion was even stitched into it by an onsite couturier to prevent any wardrobe malfunctions.
