| It's only Friday, but there's already Oscars fashion drama ahead of Sunday's ceremony.
On Thursday, Chanel creative director Karl Lagerfeld told Women's Wear Daily that representatives for 20-time Oscar nominee Meryl Streep had requested the design house produce a gown for the star before changing their minds abruptly.
"I made a sketch, and we started to make the dress," Lagerfeld told the magazine before saying he later got a second call from Streep's team canceling the request.
" 'Don’t continue the dress. We found somebody who will pay us,' " Lagerfeld claimed Streep's reps told him.
"A genius actress, but cheapness also, no?" Lagerfeld said.
Team Streep fundamentally disagrees with Lagerfeld's tale, with a representative for the actress telling the Hollywood Reporter that the original claim is false and it's against Streep's personal ethics to be paid to wear a gown on the red carpet.
Either way, all eyes will be on Streep when she hits the carpet, no matter what she's wearing. |
