The designer who created Lady Ga Ga’s controversial dress for the MTV Video Music Awards has said the dress is set to be archived for posterity.
Designer Franc Fernandez has told E! Online that the dress will go through a "type of process where it becomes a sort of 'jerky' and will be archived". Jerky is meat which has been cut up, trimmed of fat, marinated and either dried or smoked.
Fernandez told MTV Style that he bought 50 pounds of meat to create the dress and worked on the design for over three days. The dress had to be refrigerated in between work being carried out on it. He said the meat dries out rather than rotting adding "But it shouldn’t be worn again."
He continued "There’s not going to be meat dresses in the future. This was made for a specific purpose. It’s what it is."
