Fashion designer Daniel Roseberry the creative director of Schiaparelli, a French haute couture house, left everyone impressed with Schiaparelli's autumn/winter 2021 collection. It was an ode to Elsa Schiaparelli, the founder of the brand. One of the most popular designs from the collection was the one where Roseberry created a design using golden wires – he twisted them to make them look like lungs. For the unversed, Elsa was known to create stunning designs by twisting wires. Back home, it is Urfi Javed who has taken inspiration from the Schiaparelli design. She has replicated the golden-wired lungs to create her version of it, using silver wires.

Urfi Javed created the same wired lungs but in silver colour, as she wore it to cover her assets. While the original golden wired lungs were worn over a body-hugging black gown, Urfi’s version comprised of just the wired lungs, worn over brown baggy pants.

Taking to Instagram, Urfi Javed revealed that what she wore was a re-creation of Schiaparelli's collection. She also shared a picture of the ‘golden wired lungs’ and wrote: “I’m a huge huge huge fan of Schiaparelli!! It’s always been my dream to wear an original Schiaparelli! Usme time hai so I made this DIY version of this piece from fall/winter 2021-22 collection! Just took some wires, twisted them made a lot of flowers, combined them together!”

Interestingly, when Daniel Roseberry created the golden wired lungs, his idea was to bring notice to ‘breathing’ and healthy lungs during the pandemic. Urfi Javed, on the other hand, encourages people to not smoke.
While Urfi Javed has perfected her version of the Schiaparelli creation, the actor was unfortunately trolled massively for it. Several users wrote mean comments directed toward Urfi, on the post of the outfit that she put up on her social media.
