A premiere that left everyone talking.
The press tour for Dune: Part Two has turned into a showcase of high-fashion ensembles, particularly from Zendaya, whose bold fashion choices consistently astonish onlookers.
During the movie’s premiere in London, Zendaya, at 27, surpassed expectations yet again. Dressed by her trusted stylist, Law Roach, Zendaya made a striking appearance in a vintage Mugler robot suit.
The vintage couture outfit, first seen at the Paris Fashion Week in 1995, is crafted from silver fabric designed to mimic robotic armor, featuring PVC-covered cutouts, including those on the breasts and the back.
Zendaya offered a bold glimpse of the design’s revealing back as she struck poses on the carpet. Her rendition of the outfit was styled remarkably close to the original, complete with metallic pumps. Yet, she opted out of wearing the headpiece, choosing instead a sleek bun with side bangs and enhancing the look with a statement jewel necklace.
Her outfit choice gained mixed reactions online.
Despite the outfit’s glam, Zendaya’s look received mixed reactions online with some people calling it ’ridiculous’.
- «I love her and all, but no, this is ridiculous,» one user wrote.
- «Celebrities can wear trash bags these days and get praised for it,» another added.
- «Dressing up like this, showing the body, and then asking for privacy and respect? How?» asked one person.
However, some fans praised the actress for her fashion choices: - «This is a 1995 Robot suit by Mugler, it’s a piece of art and fashion history, I think Zendaya did amazing wearing this,» one said.
- «I do not get why everyone is hating. Not all famous women have to wear those Cinderella dresses. This is awesome!» another wrote, and we couldn’t agree more!
Zendaya’s behind-the-scenes decision.
Zendaya recently shared that her famous red carpet moment nearly didn’t happen. In a recent video for Vogue’s Life in Looks series, the 26-year-old star shared the behind-the-scenes story of her daring fashion choice.
Despite her enthusiasm for the idea, Zendaya’s stylist, Law Roach, initially had reservations. Concerned that Zendaya might back out at the last minute, Roach questioned whether she was serious about wearing such a bold ensemble. Zendaya remained committed to the vision.
Securing the archival design was just the beginning of the journey. One of the original creators of the suit from the ’90s even attended the fitting, and Zendaya described the experience as unexpected —the armor fit her like a glove, solidifying her belief that this fashion moment was meant to be.
She recently revealed she regretted her outfit choice.
However, as the premiere approached, doubts crept in. Zendaya admitted to second-guessing her decision, fearing that the outfit might be a «bad idea.» These doubts intensified when she faced physical discomfort when wearing the metal armor.
Zendaya revealed that within minutes of putting on the bodysuit, she began to feel lightheaded. The metal material quickly absorbed and trapped heat, causing discomfort exacerbated by the complete bodysuit and barrier between her skin and the metal.
Yet, the metal bodysuit proved to be too uncomfortable to endure for an extended period. Zendaya later changed into a more conventional yet equally stunning black cowl neck Mugler gown, adorned with vintage Bulgari earrings and an emerald ring.
Actually, in 2019 Zendaya tried a Cinderella dress too. Check out this article to decide which style suits her more.
The Forgotten Tools of Typing: Typewriter Eraser Brushes
Do Typewriter Eraser Brushes Exist?
The image depicts round objects that are typewriter erasers, which were packaged with a little brush. The erasers were composed of supple materials such as rubber, frequently combined with fine abrasives. This mixture was created to eliminate typewriter ribbon marks or ink from paper, which was the main way to fix errors in a typewritten text before digital editing or white-out were introduced.
After removing a letter or word from the paper, the tool’s tiny brush was used to carefully brush away the eraser residue that remained on it. During the era when typewriters dominated both the business and literary domains, these instruments were indispensable for upholding orderly and polished work.
A Moment in Time: The Days When Eraser Brushes Were Crucial
Typewriter eraser brushes were as ubiquitous in the early to mid-1900s as correction fluid or computerized backspace buttons are in the modern era. Because typing errors were unavoidable no matter how careful one was, every typist had one on their desk. With the use of these tools, errors might be fixed without having to start over with a completely new page.
Several sheets of paper could have to be fixed due to the widespread use of carbon paper for copying back then. Eraser brushes worked well to erase the incorrect marks without causing any tearing of the fragile material.
The Era of Typewriters’ Decline
Typewriters were quickly rendered obsolete with the advent of word processors and subsequently personal computers. As instantaneous editing became possible with digital text, the necessity for such specialized erasers diminished. These erasers have become rare artifacts from a bygone era when typing was a talent and an art.
The world of writing and editing has changed so much that seeing one of these erasing brushes now brings back memories for those who used them. There has never been a truer statement than “times have changed,” particularly when contrasting the difficulties of erasing a typewritten text with the simplicity of the undo button on contemporary technology.
A Unique Collectible
In the modern era, typewriter eraser brushes are prized collections. They are valued for their simplicity and efficacy by vintage enthusiasts and fans of retro office supplies. As a tribute to the inventiveness of earlier generations and the unusual equipment that formerly supported daily chores, they may appear out of place in a world where digital devices rule.
In summary, from indispensable to outdated
The image’s tools could appear strange or even antiquated to individuals who have never used a typewriter. Older generations, however, associate them with the constant presence of an eraser brush next to the keyboard, the scent of ink ribbons, and the steady clacking of typewriter keys. It is undeniable that times have changed, and like many advancements, what was once indispensable now quietly lies in the annals of history.
