>>> ALL RIGHT, FOLKS, WE ARE BACK NOW WITH AN INSIDE LOOK AT THE LATEST FASHION EXHIBIT AT THE BROOKLYN MUSEUM, EXAMINING THE LEGACY OF DESIGNER THIERRY MUGLER, AND THE WORLD OF FANTASY HE CREATED WITH HIS INNOVATIVE AND TRANSFORMATIVE DESIGNS. TAKE A LOOK FOR YOURSELF. >> WELCOME TO "THIERRY MUGLER: COUTURISSIME" AT THE BROOKLYN MUSEUM. WE'RE ENTERING THE FANTASY WORLDS OF THIERRY MUGLER. WHEN PEOPLE COME TO SEE THE EXHIBITION, THEY'RE GOING TO SEE TEN DIFFERENT WORLDS OF THIERRY MUGLER. EVERY ROOM YOU GO INTO IS A NEW STORY. IT'S A NEW PART OF AN ADVENTURE. IT BECAME MORE THEATRICAL AS THE YEARS WENT BY. HE VERY MUCH KNEW HOW TO WORK A RUNWAY, AND IT WAS AT A TIME WHEN A LOT OF THE FASHION MODELS WERE HIRED BECAUSE THEY HAD PERSONALITIES. THIERRY MUGLER'S ICONIC LOOKS, THERE ARE SO MANY. I THINK, TODAY, THE YOUNGER AUDIENCE THINKS OF CARDI B. WEARING THE VENUS DRESS AT THE 2019 GRAMMY AWARDS. ONE OF THE GREAT THINGS HE DID COLLABORATE ON WAS WITH GEORGE MICHAEL FOR THE "TOO FUNKY" VIDEO. ♪ TOO FUNKY FOR ME ♪ >> DEMI MOORE WORE ONE OF HIS DRESSES IN "INDECENT PROPOSAL." AFTER THIERRY MUGLER RETIRED IN 2002, HE CAME BACK FOR BEYONCE'S TOUR, AND HE ALSO LOANED SOME CLOTHES FROM THE ARCHIVE TO LADY GAGA FOR HER "TELEPHONE" VIDEO. IN 2019, HE GOT A CALL FROM KIM KARDASHIAN, WHO REQUESTED A NEW DESIGN THAT PUT A BIG SPOTLIGHT ON THIERRY MUGLER. CLOTHES GIVE US AN OPPORTUNITY TO DESCRIBE TO OTHER PEOPLE WHO WE ARE, AND SO, WHEN WE GO INTO A REALM OF FANTASY, WE CAN BECOME A SUPER HERO. HE WANTED TO GIVE YOU THE TOOLS TO FEEL CONFIDENT, TO PORTRAY THAT SUPER HEROINE THAT YOU WANT TO BE IN REAL LIFE. WHEN PEOPLE ENTER INTO AN EXHIBITION, YOU KIND OF LIKE TO TAKE THEM OUT OF THEIR DAILY LIVES, AND I LIKE PEOPLE TO COME AWAY FROM IT WITH POSITIVE ENERGY. MAYBE YOU'RE GOING TO DO A LITTLE MORE POWER DRESSING, WEAR SOMETHING A LITTLE BIT MORE DARING. ANY TIME WE WEAR CLOTHES, WE HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY TO KIND OF EMBRACE SOME OTHER PART OF OURSELVES. IT'S A TOOL THAT ALLOWS US TO EXPLORE AND ENJOY OTHER PARTS OF OUR PSYCHES. >> OH, FASCINATING WORK, AND THE EXHIBIT CONTINUES THROUGH MAY 7th. >> A LOT OF FUN CLOTHES CAN
