Heidi Klum’s Living Marble Statue Look at Met Gala 2026 Reminds Fans of Hrithik Roshan’s Iconic Dhoom 2 Museum Disguise
The supermodel said the custom look, created by Mike Marino, was inspired by Raffaello Monti’s 1847 sculpture and took 20 minutes to complete.
On Sunday, May 4, 52-year-old supermodel Heidi Klum arrived at the 2026 Met Gala dressed as a marble statue in a custom ensemble created by Oscar-nominated make-up artist Mike Marino.
Embracing the 'Fashion is Art' dress code, Klum views these transformative costumes as 'life performance art' designed to inspire creativity and surprise audiences.
Inspired by Raffaelle Monti's 1847 sculpture 'Veiled Vestal,' Marino transformed the look using latex and spandex, telling Vogue, 'I want to become her.'
The dramatic appearance captured the attention of fashion fans on social media, drawing comparisons to Klum's previous transformative costumes.
While Klum joked the detailed look took 20 minutes to complete, the marble statue ensemble marks a distinct shift from her 2025 Halloween costume as Medusa.
