The gorgeous Bride of Frankenstein @amberlikeenergy! This wedding dress collab was so special. Amber and I played ideas off of each other the whole time. Amber draped the bodice herself and covered it in silicone, making it an iconic piece of artwork. I also sewed strands of the shiny silvery fabric on top of the silicone to tie the bodice and skirt together, leaving the ends of those strands loose and flowy. She wanted it to be raw but beautiful. The draping and bustle were asymmetrical to keep the natural organic look. The skirt has a built in green chiffon petticoat for that pop of color! Topped off with a matching green veil wth jagged ends. This was unique and beautiful. I seldom get to create art pieces with my friends like this, and this one really touched me. Thanks for letting me part of your special day 💖💖💖

One of the most memorable and powerful moments in my time collaborating with @kattypaldos and @megsstalter. Women building each other up and supporting one another. It is always about love and collaboration with these two. #lovealwayswins

Meg Stalter Goes Viral as a Life-Size Golden Emmy Statuette at the 2026 Emmy Awards. Tap https://glamcoco.com/looks/meg-stalter-2026-emmy-awards-golden-statuette to get her look details.

At the 78th Primetime Emmy Awards, Meg Stalter executed one of the most delightfully unhinged red-carpet moments in television history by arriving not merely dressed for the ceremony, but transformed into the Emmy statuette itself. Celebrating her first-ever nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series for Hacks, Stalter collaborated with stylist Kat Typaldos and costume designer Erica D. Schwartz to engineer a life-sized, head-to-toe metallic gold manifestation of the iconic trophy—complete with sculpted arching wings, an atom-prop sphere, and brilliant molten skin painted by Hannah Sherer. Supported by hair genius Clayton Hawkins , nail artist Sonya Meesh , and tailored by Ann Early Yonge, the ensemble pushed method dressing past high-concept fashion into the realm of pure, gleeful performance art.
