Round 1 - 2026 (Costume Art / Fashion is Art) - Match 78 of 128

Emma Chamberlain (Mugler), left

"“I’m somebody who really believes that fashion is art,” Chamberlain said. In envisioning her look, she took inspiration from both her family and her lifelong love of art. “My dad is an oil painter and a watercolor painter, and I grew up in a very creative household with art all over my house,” she said. For Chamberlain, paintings—and paint itself—are nostalgic and comforting. She and Ellner wanted her gown to feel like one, incorporating textures, colors, and themes from some of her favorite works. “There is sort of this watercolor feel, and I love watercolor painting,” she said. “But then also there’s a creepy, sort of ominous undertone to the gown, like the way that it moves. And that is very much my taste in art.” To begin the custom design process, Chamberlain and Ellner sent art references (including works by Van Gogh and Munch) to Castro Freitas and the Mugler team, then had a three-hour conversation to talk through ideas. Ellner also selected archival Mugler looks as influences, including a butterfly dress from 1997. ... The result is a stunning gown, designed by Castro Freitas and hand-painted by artist Anna Deller-Yee, that literally turned Chamberlain’s body into a canvas. It’s a feeling she loves. “I really am someone who enjoys fashion the most when I get to be a complete blank canvas,” she said. The dress took Deller-Yee 40 hours to paint, working with 30 base colors, and four days to dry." (x)

vs. Ben Platt (Tanner Fletcher), right

"Ben Platt, the Tony-winning actor and singer, opted for a custom hand-painted and embroidered Tanner Fletcher suit on Monday night—simultaneously nodding to the night’s theme and a canonical piece of musical theater. His look referenced A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte (1884–1886) by Georges Seurat—the work that inspired Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine’s Sunday in the Park With George—with scattered, almost pointillist detailing across the fabric."
