Solange Knowles | Iris van Herpen

Solange Knowles attends this year's MET Gala 2018 in Iris van Herpen. 

If there was going to be any fashion tech on the red carpet, it might as well be celebrated designer Iris van Herpen whose tube dress with Medusian coils was worn by Solange at this year’s MET Gala.

Iris made a name for herself as the high-tech priestess of fashion. She first presented her avant-garde fashion in Amsterdam. Then she was invited by the Fédération Française de la Couture in 2011, where she combined fine handwork techniques with digital technology, proving that she is a force to be reckoned with in the fashion industry.
