Video: Content creator mimics Met Gala looks
Who did it better? This was a real testament to creativity.
The Met Gala is known for breaking the internet with out-of-this-world fashion looks.
This year was no different. While many celebrities slayed, as usual, some creations pushed boundaries, and everyone wanted to have fun with this year's theme, Superfine: Tailoring Black Style.
While it may be a time for high fashion, it's also a great opportunity for content creators to recreate some of the more interesting looks on the red carpet. One content creator who has Mzansi in stitches, goes by the name wechijandukwa1.
