My girl, Gigi Hadid is here!

Good to see you always.

Oh my goodness.

Okay, talk.

Let me just get out the way.

Talk to me about the whole look.

It was that slow to walk up with

because I m literally wearing a sculpture by Tom Brown

and his team.

Sis!

2,800,000 beads just on the dress alone.

It took 20 people 5,000 hours to work on this look.

Wow.

70 people worked on it.

So I m just so honored to be here presenting this for them.

I think that s what this is all about, is, you know,

being able to celebrate creativity together.

Yes. Come raise money

for the costume institute.

And we just had so much fun with the theme.

I feel like this should be hung up in there,

like right away.

And that s what Tom really wanted

is he wanted the attention to detail.

Absolutely. To be obvious

and for it to be worth a museum.

I m just, I m like, I don t even know what to say.

I m like trying to find the words.

Same, I m just honored to be in this.

Shout out to the Tom Brown team.

Absolutely, now.

I m just so proud of you guys

and your work and just honored to be in it.

Incredible.

And you re always one of the most anticipated arrivals

at any fashion event.
