The designer told Vogue, "I knew that I wanted the dress to have a personal component for her. When someone like Hillary goes to the Met, it's not just like, 'there's Hillary at the Met and she's wearing a dress.' It has a lot of significance. I felt like I had to be very thoughtful about what the dress would mean to the theme and to the occasion."
Meanwhile, the Former First Lady of the United States wore the maroon gown with her short tresses tied in a side-parted half hairdo, matching heels, ruby and diamond embellished earrings, rings, minimal make-up and wine-hued lip shade.
