The “Savage” rapper’s sheer, sparkly Rey Ortiz style sent fans into a frenzy — but it was originally meant for a different star, the designer tells us.
But as Ortiz tells Page Six Style, the sheer, sparkly style was originally meant for a different star.
“I made it for Zerina [Akers, Megan’s stylist] for a celebrity that found it to be ‘too naked,” the designer dishes. While Ortiz didn’t name names, Akers has also worked with Latto, Chloe x Halle and Beyoncé; the latter’s hit song “Cuff It” served as the soundtrack for Megan’s TikTok. “I was a little disappointed, of course, but knew that it was a matter of timing and ‘cojones,'” the designer continued of the missed opportunity, adding of his crystallized creation, “The theme was ‘internet breaking,’ and I think we achieved something close enough.”“I used both a crystalized mesh as well as individual rhinestones [that] felt nice and contoured the body,” Ortiz tells Page Six Style.
“Seeing it being worn was a good reminder of how much I loved it when I created it originally. Sometimes, when someone opts for another design instead of your custom creation, we can be very hard on ourselves wondering what failed or didn’t work,” he says.
