The 2021 Met Gala mystery 

Back in 2021, avid artist BossLogic dropped one of the finest designs. He featured Lady Dimitrescu in a brown outfit. Interestingly, BossLogic had his inspiration from the big-time singer and actor Jenifer Lopez. The ‘On The Floor’ singer had styled a brown, long Ralph Lauren dress that gave major Resident Evil Village vibes. And looking at it, the artist could simply transition her onto a paper while adding some colors from his palette – turning it into a masterpiece.
