Overview
- Kim Kardashian arrived in a glossy orange fiberglass breastplate by British artist Allen Jones, with Nadia Lee Cohen directing the look.
- The piece was adapted from a late-1960s full-length body cast that Jones created for an unmade film and was trimmed to the hips so she could move.
- The team finished the fiberglass at an auto body shop, which produced the high-gloss, car-like surface seen on the carpet.
- London artisans Patrick Whitaker and Keir Malem of Whitaker Malem built an attached leather skirt that Jones hand-painted in orange brushstrokes.
- The design follows a clear lineage from Jones’s 2013 “Body Armour” portrait of Kate Moss, which cemented the form within his body of work.
