Thomas often selects erotically charged poses, including Courbet's "L'Origine du monde" (1866), but, as if to thwart the sexual availability the poses suggest, she makes sharply focused photographs with saturated colors and paints on board in glossy enamels adorned with sequins, giving her works a hard and almost impenetrable surface that serves as an allegory for her models' self-conscious autonomy.
One after another walked movie star dresses (actual movie star and longtime Rodarte acolyte Kirsten Dunst was watching in the front row)—you could see her or any number of today's actresses accepting an Oscar next winter in a powder blue Chantilly lace dress embellished with patches of gold sequins, or the pink tulle dress scattered with embroidered baby's breath.
And the model-turned-actress's incredible red-carpet look at the Met Gala was the perfect way to challenge those notions: With her clean-shaven head painted silver and covered in artfully-arranged sequins, she looked less like a conventional A-lister and more like a hauntingly beautiful space alien (and/or David Bowie's natural successor, may he rest in peace).
He also dressed Best Supporting Actress nominee Laurie Metcalf in blush sequins, Kelly Ripa in a ballgown with a green-and-pink bustled bow, author and activist Janet Mock in a sequin and chiffon tank dress with train and Olympic skier Lindsay Vonn in a sexy sheer tulle number (which had sleeves attached mere moments before she hit the red carpet).
The exhibition is being underwritten by Gucci, the Italian brand that has experienced an extreme renaissance over the last few years under the creative director Alessandro Michele, with his vision of a grab bag world of muchness that includes boys and girls and sequins and tennis sweaters and granny glasses, an aesthetic that has effectively been a celebration of the power of camp.
HER BODY AND OTHER PARTIES by Carmen Maria Machado (2017) "It's a wild thing, this book, covered in sequins and scales, blazing with the influence of fabulists from Angela Carter to Kelly Link and Helen Oyeyemi, and borrowing from science fiction, queer theory and horror," our critic Parul Sehgal wrote in her review of this Cuban-American author's recent short story volume.
Rotting fish, festooned with sequins and beads, gave off such an overpowering scent at the Museum of Modern Art's 413 showing of the South Korean artist Lee Bul's "Majestic Splendor" that they had to be removed from the Manhattan museum; earlier this year, a new iteration, doused with potassium permanganate to neutralize the smell, caused a small fire at a gallery in London.
At Coach, Stuart Vevers continued to develop the Route 66 elements of his brand vernacular — shearlings and prairie dresses, cowboy shirts and varsity sweaters — by jazzing them up with a bit of sparkle, a lot of sequins, and some new, lacy slip dresses (he's expanding the evening offering); also a nod to Keith Haring in the form of prints and intarsia sweaters.
There were headpieces inspired by Fritz Lang's classic 1927 sci-fi film "Metropolis," sequins that referenced the traditional Mexican embroidered China Poblana skirts that his mother would wear growing up in Puebla and geometric patterns that drew on the work of the Modernist artists Josef and Anni Albers, who explored Mexican archaeological sites after leaving their native Germany in the 1930s.
Yet in a world in which even Giorgio Armani seemed to be chasing the youth vote in his Privé collection with a 50 shades of evening shorts collection (in watercolor silk, paired with elaborately swagged bustier tops or single-button jackets; in cumulous organza, with matching camisoles and anoraks speckled with sequins; in paillette-covered bloomers and sequined biker shorts), it seemed more reactionary than revelatory.
The collection itself was something of a long-haul journey, with more than 200 looks, including urban daywear (diaphanous parkas, slouchy slacks, relaxed knits), elegant suiting, eye-popping nightclub neons (chartreuse yellow or hot pink biker jackets, miniskirts and hot pants, and sequins by the truckload), and a finale of Emporio-branded bustier dresses, sheer blazers and blouses, scattered with the letters and finished with tassels.
Throughout it all, he consistently managed to capture new moods that were just around the corner, creating pieces women never knew they needed until the clothes went down the runway: a bibbed, tea-length, Peter Pan-collared dress in a deep cerulean lace (fall 2004); a buckled, square-heeled Sun King court shoe (fall 2012); a short-sleeved pajama shirtdress, covered in iridescent pink sequins (fall 2013).
Literally so at Atelier Versace, where the 21 looks by Donatella Versace radiated a gilded Wonder Woman look, from a caped gold lace dress suspended by 3-D printed bronze metallic ropes around the neck to a sharp-shouldered catsuit as flexible as a pair of leggings but pavéd in approximately 8,000 sequins cut in different geometric shapes, fading from a 24-carat gold color into ivory.
If the ''power suit'' circa Tom Ford at Gucci was lean and mean and made a gal look like a neo-noir detective, the new or alternative suiting is versatile and mismatched, the look of a superhero halfway through a costume change: satin blazers with cargo pants in monochrome (Ford, at his namesake label), deconstructed tweeds with raw-edged leather and biker boots (Lanvin) or Converse and sequins (Marc Jacobs).
In the end, what's mysterious, worth aspiring to and impossible to prescribe for anyone else are the conviction and fortitude that allow some creators to do their best possible work in whatever circumstances they find themselves, whether in a remote hut adorned by a single calla lily or a cluttered and sometimes noisy kitchen with an unknown but truly impressive quantity of rainbow sequins scattered across the floor.
