To the gshow, the stylist said that the clothes are made of very fine and tight imported canvas, dyed in the artist’s skin tone. Contrary to what it looks like, it wasn’t made of metal so as not to hurt Paolla. All of synthetic material, the feathers were made of transparent silver fabric, cut out one by one and glued to a wand to make it malleable.
