Doja Cat inked in red, 30k crystals

Award-winning singer makes heads turn at the Paris Fashion Week

-

Singer Doja Cat turned heads with her all-red look while attending the Paris Fashion Week event. The Grammy Award-winner was barely recognisab­le as she covered her body in red paint and over 30,000 blood-red Swarovski crystals for the Schiaparel­li Haute Couture show, reports aceshowbiz.com.

She amped up the effect by wearing a red strapless Schiaparel­li Haute Couture dress with a beaded skirt, which she paired with knee-high boots. She also accessoris­ed with a dramatic wrap and giant gem earrings in the same scarlet shade. Celebrity make-up artist Pat McGrath spent nearly five hours creating the look called ‘Doja’s Inferno’, which was partly inspired by the first part of Dante’s “Inferno”, according to a statement.

In an Instagram post, McGrath spoke about working with the ‘Kiss Me More’ songstress to create the “magical” look. “Such a pleasure working with the gorgeous @DojaCat and the amazing @DanielRose­berry on the ‘Doja’s Inferno’ look for @Schiaparel­li’s FW23 Haute Couture collection,” he wrote.

“Doja’s sublime patience during the 4 hours and 58 minutes it took to create the look with #TeamPatMcG­rath, which was covered in over 30,000 hand-applied @swarovski Crystals, was inspiring,” he said. “The final product was a magical, mesmerisin­g masterpiec­e of sparkling brilliance. Xx.”

Doja, however, wasn’t the only standout at the fashion show. Kylie Jenner also made a jaw-dropping appearance as she wore a black gown affixed with a large, lifelike lion head, a likely nod to her Leo star sign. The faux animal head was made from hand-sculpted foam, wool and silk faux fur, and was hand painted to look as life-like as possible, celebratin­g the glory of the natural world.
