IMAGE: Dutch Designer Iris Van Herpen, who created Grimes's Met Gala look, said the cult 'Bene Gesserit look' is made from silver liquid silicone that is 'hand-casted into a mirror finished laser-cut labyrinth.'
'From the intricate bodice, twenty-six meters of dramatically draped silk is intertwining through the mirrored waves, floating down organically to be hand pleated and gradient-dyed from white to black,' Van Herpen shared on her Instagram.

IMAGE: Gabrielle Union's custom outfit was also created by Iris Van Herpen.
'Thousands of spheres are cut and layerd in size gradients from a translucent white 'liquid' fabric and lasercut with a fine silver outline, to then be handstitched seamlessly in a multilevel optical illusion from which waves seem to float down weightlessly,' the designer detailed on Instagram.
