Fashion auction speculation and theoryfrom @johnmvilla2

Who bought the $1,300,000 McQueen ensemble and why is it law in Zendaya? This outfit sold last week in an unprecedented sale. Apparently from Naomi Campbell's own collection, it's a custom made ensemble of good one from Alexander McQueen's 2010 Plato's Atlantis, the last full collection before McQueen's death. This birthed the famed armadillo better. Very few of these shoes were made and they never appear at auction, with a couple almost exceptions. And this multicolored Python version is perhaps the most iconic of all, so this is an even bigger deal. Like tier% of that is tied up in the shoes. So why would it be these two? This is why. Dune three is around the corner. And as far as futuristic archival fashion goes, they've already pulled the Mugler robot. That's hard to beat. Of course, there's contemporary designers like Eris Van Herpen, face age vintage from Pierre Cardin, Courreges and Rabanne. This dress dress also sold at that same auction. And Mugler has other insane treasures in their archive they might be persuaded to loan, as does McQueen. This would be insane. But Playlist Atlantis is the perfect encapsulation of the dystopian futuristic universe Dune, except it's underwater. Still, this would ruin my life. Usually, when a piece sells at auction, no in the public knows who bought it, which is the biggest thing I miss about working rank auction, unless the buyer declares themself. If they're bidding in tier sale room and win, or if the piece later appears in a museum as a named donation or part of the permanent collection, or the buyer might post about it online or in the case of fashion, wear it. This happened with the Jane Birkin auction. When Kim Kardashian wore Diana's amethyst cross, she outed herself as the winner of that sale, and so on. There is a great possibility that an institution like the Better purchased this lot or someone did so on their behalf. But if Law and Z worse behind this, we'll find out Dune. The only problem would be if the shoes aren't her size. There's really no altering these. Let me know what you think and if you have any other theories. Okay. Bye.
