Lizzo’s Cape Embroidery at the Met Gala Took 1,200 Hours

Lizzo is back on the red carpet at the 2022 Met Gala and looking as glamorous as ever. Showing up in a black-and-gold embroidered cape and a black gown by Thom Browne, Lizzo embodied the “Gilded Glamour” theme and seemed to throw in a “Bridgerton” reference as well. Her dramatic cape embroidery actually took 1,200 hours to create, designer Browne told Vogue. Lizzo finished her look with black-and-gold corkscrew nails and voluminous curls.

For 2019’s “Camp: Notes on Fashion,” the “About Damn Time” singer echoed the exhibition’s banner image (a pink Bertrand Guyon caped coat with a flamingo motif and a surrealist flamingo, Stephen Jones-designed headpiece for Schiaparelli fall 2018 haute couture) — showing up as a literal iteration of a fashion flamingo. Walking the pink carpet, in tow with Marc Jacobs, Lizzo wore a pink gown with a feathered pink coat and coordinating pink hair. She embodied the essence of camp, paying homage to the 1964 campy film “What a Way to Go!”

Lizzo has continued to conquer every space, cementing herself as a true cultural icon. This year alone, she starred in a hit Amazon Prime original reality competition show, appeared as a guest judge on season 14 of “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” debuted two new songs on “Saturday Night Live,” launched a new inclusive shapewear line, and proceeded to break the internet every day with her social media posts.

Ahead, see how everyone’s favorite Taurus channeled “Gilded Glamour.”
