Ryan Coogler expressed excitement about wearing a cummerbund for the first time during a fitting for the Met Gala, which he attended for the first time. While many of his collaborators have attended this prestigious event, Coogler shared that he never really felt it was meant for him. Collaborating with designer Jerry Lorenzo helped him feel at home through discussion of personal topics like fatherhood and spirituality, emphasizing the importance of community and connection within the fashion and entertainment industries.
Today is the first day I actually put one on my body... I've been to countless weddings and I never got a chance to pull one off.
For me, the most important thing is the community I get to build through my films... it feels like home as far as fashion designers go.
The power of being around people who understand you, believe in you, value you... it kind of doesn't matter where you are.
I always enjoy seeing what they put on... I never quite felt like it was the place for me.
