With the Costume Institute’s annual ball commencing, COACD was able to capture the moments leading up to this years gala themed, American Women Throughout History. Hours before the spectacle, we went to Jason Wu’s studio to chronicle the prepping involved for the year’s biggest fashion event. Thanks to Jason and his team, we got a behind the scenes look at the fitting process with model of the moment miss Constance Jablonski. As the new face of Estée Lauder, the 5′11 stunner also dishes about her new beauty contract as well as her take on Jason’s clothes and her vision of the American woman. We also love how Marilyn Monroe is her idol!!!
