Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Lady, Stephanie Calzolari, said Cardi B got invited by Instagram with a sponsored table, and was then approved by Vogue to attend.
This lady is saying Cardi wasn’t officially invited to the Met Gala:
“Well, Cardi wasn’t officially invited by Vogue to the Met. She was yet again, invited by Instagram, who sponsored a table, and was then approved by Vogue to attend.“
Speaking to WWD exclusively, Sensen Lii, founder of Windowsen, known for presenting new collections via over-the-top drag performances in Paris, said the collaboration took nearly two months from planning to execution. The brand’s entire studio worked around the clock on the project.
Fitting Cardi B for this year’s Met Gala is also the second time Lii has visited New York.
“The first was in September 2018, when I was still in school. Each visit is significant, with immediate work upon arrival — it truly embodies the essence of the ‘city that never sleeps,’ which, to me, means working through the night rather than playing,” he added.
A graduate of the Royal Academy of Fine Arts in Antwerp, Lii relocated to Paris from Shanghai to capture global growth potential at the beginning of 2024. He has presented two collections in Paris, off schedule.
Set against the backdrop of a rainy Friday night in Paris, the Windowsen runway show was everything a fan of the brand would expect: like a deranged Frankenstein, the Chengdu-born designer Sensen Lii held court in a dark, dingy and rather sleazy club: Le Consulat on Avenue Parmentier. Taking place off the official Fashion Week schedule, it stood in delicious contrast to the overt commercialism of the average catwalk show. Drag queens of all shapes and sizes navigated the catwalk in high stiletto heels and sculpted chunky platform heels, making unimaginable contortions.
