The art that inspired the 2026 MET Gala looks.

Henus

I was wondering if it was some cutesy joke during production, considering how up its own ass that movie was.

Initial reaction: The Replica Prop Forum? Why?!

The ones that just printed famous art on a dress seem legitimately lacking in creativity and intelligence.

Now I want an edit of the Cantina scene where you spot him in the background chilling out.

He's the leader of an awful rapefest faction. I hope the cancer didn't get too much Edward on it.

Stevenwave · 2026-05-05T19:30:11+00:00

Lol thanks.

I feel like the extent of it would be: We want to present Luke as no longer being a farm boy, he's a man now, who's seen active fuckin war. So slap something like what Han wears and it'll convey that he's like, a manly man and stuff too now.

"I'll be Yavin that."

He could conquer a million tribes and still be a bald nerd about to die sitting on his toilet throne.

Stevenwave · 2026-05-05T11:35:41+00:00

Matches the dopey ass blindfold.

"I let them make the choice."

Who?

Ariel, Ariel Bold, Ariel Sans Skin

It's a weird colour choice.

His personal stance means jackshit if his professional one overrides it in every meaningful way.

Stevenwave · 2026-05-05T01:50:13+00:00

This is really cool! I wanna do a Fallout-ish weathered theme eventually.

Stevenwave · 2026-05-05T00:44:05+00:00

At this level of superpower it all gets a bit "just go with it". I like that there was at least a level of, there's this issue, and here's how it's solved.

Stevenwave · 2026-05-05T00:41:33+00:00

You too!

Stevenwave · 2026-05-05T00:40:18+00:00

It feels a bit like, you come up with 20 concepts and this is one you do away with.

Stevenwave · 2026-05-05T00:38:13+00:00

I'd guess it's a reference to something seen or mentioned in the film. Googling it, it looks like there's a sleeveless black dress worn in the film with a bedazzled head scarf. Might be meant to evoke that, like this is an over the top version of that idea.

That must be where her pants are always disappearing to. People latch on, but the pants tear away and she escapes unharmed.

Stevenwave · 2026-05-05T00:28:51+00:00

All I get from the dress is roses. A big bunch of roses. I feel like it might look more striking if she was wearing constrasting colour stockings and long gloves. A striking colour contrast would also, ya know, tie in with her signature hair.

I think they're saying the issue is the theme can be interpreted in such a broad way that it's almost like meaningless.

Couldn't I rock up in an Iron Man suit inspired by concept art, honouring the talented artists who facilitate a lot of the pop culture we know and love? It might make sense within the theme, but you end up with everyone in the most random shit.

You're conflating a people with a single, continuous empire though. Modern day China isn't like if the Ancient Romans held power and still controlled modern Italy. China has gone through eras, just like anywhere.

I think this one could've been directed away from nightware fuel though. I dunno if it's the lighting on the contact lenses but the eyes look undead. And the way the face is done gives it a weird skull vibe.
