Beyonce's costume, as well as those of her Destiny Child band members
and all 120 backup dancers on stage, were creations of New York-based
designer Rubin Singer.
Singer described Beyoncé's bodysuit, which was was made from python,
iguana, lamb leather, and Chantilly lace, as "representative of what I
do."
"The black motorcycle jacket with asymmetrical collar was all about
construction; the skirt was draped, and it was very intrinsic to the
draping I do–layered and multidimensional; and then the paneling and use
of exotic skins and leather on the bodysuit," the third-generation
couturier from Russia explained.
“We had to make the body suit have a tremendous range of motion and flexibility,” he said.
"Beyoncé is such a fierce and intense performer we could not have the outfit constrict her in any way.” |

Why? I don't know anything about iguana however I have seen items made of lamb leather and I have a pair of shoes made with python leather.
|
Yeah, I have lamb leather gloves and a lamb leather jacket, soft as hell. I love snakeskin shoes and bags

LOL, the lamb didn't surprise me, but the python and especially iguana did. I'd never heard of it.

^oh they make a lot of python products. i used to love snakeskin shoes until i realize they eventually just dry out. lizard is easier to upkeep. i kinda like exotics though. in some countries--like Nigeria and countries in Asia--products made from snake and lizard etc. are actually not very expensive.

With proper care they won't. Just have to be sure to condition them w/snakeskin conditioner.

I believe that some skins will eventually dry even w/care and conditioning. Just like some skins eventually yellow no matter how they're stored

Learn something new everyday on BHM. I'm not a shoe person, but I've seen some Prada's or something that were called snakeskin. I always assumed most of those prints were just looks/replicas (except of course for the really high ends)
While we are here, My mom needs help on how to clean the handles of Louis Vuitton Monograms. I've gotten no info on LVs website and purse forums say just use a warm cloth, but that hasn't helped. I wear the dark Damier so I've never had this problem) [will post in fashion thread too]
