[gasps] How are you?

I wanted to sneak in behind you.

You look...

I actually want to give you a hug.

You look amazing. Amazing.

This is beautiful. Thank you.

Who are you wearing tonight?

I m wearing a custom Alaia dress

designed by Pieter Mulier.

Wow, okay.

Did you go in with a vision this year

or were you sort of like, Hey, Alaia.

Take it away. What happened?

I let them give me ideas in the beginning.

We had multiple fittings and meetings,

just talking about the colors and the fabrics,

and this is actually one whole fabric.

I think it s 13 meters- Wow.

I wanna say, but yeah.

That s unbelievable.

What was your day like today?

Tell me what time you woke up.

Was it chill at any point?

I don t think MET day would ever be chill for me,

but honestly, being here last year

made me be a little bit more relaxed.

Yes. But you know, still,

once you start the glam, everything s so chaotic.

And I m here and it s so good to see you.

You re like a big relief for me.

Oh, I m so glad.

Every time I see you, it s like a bundle of love

just walked into the room.

My last question for you,

if you had to make a playlist

of three songs, very small playlist,

of getting ready songs, what would they be?

Today, I try to put on some piano music.

To be calm, I love to have FKJ playing

in the background when I m getting ready.

I m not like the hype type of...

I totally understand that. I like to stay chill.

Keeps your heart rate down. Exactly.

Kind of like- You re breathing deeply.

Yeah, find my peace. Be chill.

You look amazing.

And you look peaceful. Thank you.

You look relaxed. Do I?

I was so nervous last year.

I feel like I m doing a better job this time.

[Emma] You are so cool.

You re so calm. You re so collected.

Thank you.

[Emma] I can t wait to see you in there.

Thank you.

See you inside. Thank you so much for doing

this again with me.

You re the sweetest. Love you.

[Emma] Love you, oh my god, you re the best.
