Overview
- The look used skin-toned prosthetic pasties from Out of Kit, reinforced with power mesh and medical adhesive, according to makeup artist Sasha Glasser.
- Temporary tattoos across Roan’s chest and back were added, with designs printed at the last minute to complete the illusion.
- The singer wore a sheer burgundy custom Mugler gown that appeared to hang from nipple rings, drawing on Thierry Mugler’s 1998 pierced‑nipple couture reference.
- Roan addressed the uproar on Instagram, saying she was “giggling,” calling the outfit “awesome and weird,” and encouraging people to exercise their free will.
- Reaction online ranged from praise for bold fashion to criticism of impropriety, as Roan attended the ceremony nominated for record of the year and best pop solo performance for “The Subway” but did not win.
