So what would the designer do if he had a hand in the stylings of today’s biggest celebs?
Kanye West
Background: Hailing from District 20, Panem’s primary douche and copper manufacturer, Kanye West perfectly embodies all his district has to offer.
(1) Working douche shoulder pieces; activated by an easily concealed button held in West’s right hand, the hip hop star can douche whenever and whomever he pleases.
(2) A bright neon bow-tie, which is laced with both an irresistible pheromone and brainwashing glow, so the task of drawing attention to himself is made all the easier.
(3) Blazer and shirt made of the lightest, yet firmest, of a new copper-fabric, engineered in his very hometown. This, coupled with… (4) A copper ankle bracelet, make West an unstopple lightning thunder-thief.
Adele
Background: Adele is the ideal representative of the district responsible for Panem’s salt supply, as her voice not only silences mockingjays, but also brings them, and all other citizens, to salty, salty tears.
(1) and (2) Borrowing from an old image that he once found on a near-century old salt container, and inspired by the singer’s penchant for a simplicity that never distracts from the power of her song, Cinna decided to bring the little girl with the yellow dress and clear umbrella back to life. Also, at times, Adele’s stage can become a major splash-zone, what with the sobbing fans in the first few rows, so the umbrella is pretty practical.
Ryan Gosling
Background: Which district does life-saving, feminist-inspiring, Swooner McSwoonerson call home? None other than the one that gets Panem all hot and heavy with aphrodisiacs!
(1) These may look like ordinary frames from afar, but actually they’re handcrafted from the shells of oysters. So not only will a long gaze from Gosling render you speechless, but even just the slightest of whiffs will get your special parts going.
(2) Though cotton is actually more representative of District 8, Cinna wanted to ensure all onlookers of the actor’s devotion to sweet, sweet snuggling after a long day of respecting you, girl.
(3) The real focal point of this ensemble, artichokes are the least suspecting of all aphrodisiacs; you don’t know about its secret magic powers, because it’s so modest, until you take a big bite out of it and suddenly… you’re struck by how big its heart is.
(4) Sing it, Ryan. Sing it.
(5) As both Cinna and his subject are very environmentally conscious, both saw fit to recycle the leather covers of old classics like To Kill a Mockingbird and Pride & Prejudice in order to craft these humble shoes.
Lana del Rey
Background: As best shown through her dance moves, which are often referred to as perfectly robotic, performer Lana del Rey calls District 5 home; that is, the one that provides the nation with electronics and power.
(1) What better way to display del Rey’s aptitude for complete body control than by dressing her in an outfit that isn’t only eye-catching, but also completely complementary to her style of movement?
Nicki Minaj
Background: Lady MC Nicki Minaj is actually straight from the Capitol. In fact, she pretty much set the standard for Capitol fashion.
She and Cinna split due to creative differences.
