Summary
On Threads, Williams' longtime groomer said the 4 May Met Gala was a high-pressure, high-stakes event and that feedback is welcome, but callousness is not.
Williams debuted at the gala in custom Balenciaga with a Black Swan-inspired look featuring iridescent blue and dark red eyes representing White Swan and Black Swan.
While some online users criticised the execution, others praised the concept, posted supportive comments and recreated Flores' design on social media.
