… janelle …
janelle monae wears custom thom browne for the 2025 met gala.
brought to life with oscar-winning costume designer paul tazewell, janelle’s look is a deconstructed, then reconstructed take on the tuxedo… a transformation from the familiar to the surreal.
janelle wears a thirties-inspired, oversized trompe l’oeil suit cape half realized in 3-ply mohair with white radial stitch grosgrain tipping, and half finished in embroidered pinstripe intarsia into red double duchess silk, with embroidered radial outlines in grosgrain ribbons.
time ticks… ticks… a motorized monocle on janelle’s left eye moves another second with each step she takes.
beneath the overcoat, janelle wears a deconstructed bi-color sportcoat and skirt in pinstripe suiting and red wool crepe, with exposed facing and shoulder pads in white silk faille, finished with tailoring basting, cross and marking stitches. the bi-color ensemble is worn over a corset in black silk faille with white binding, a white cotton oxford shirt and black, white and red striped seamed intarsia tie. her shoes are the 4-bar spectator platforms.
