Mother And Daughter Continue To Recreate Extravagant Red-Carpet Looks With Simple Household Items, And They Totally Nail It (30 New Pics)
Interview With ArtistA talented duo from Turkey continues to surprise us with their creative approach. This mother and daughter recreate the most extravagant red carpet looks with nothing but supplies found at home.
Alya and Stefani's journey to DIY celebrity looks started when then 3-year-old Stefani was "trying on" fruit, vegetable, and flower clothing with the help of perspective. Since then, this talented mother-daughter team has advanced and recreated iconic dresses of celebrities such as Zendaya, Rihanna, Adele, and many more.
Nowadays, Stefani's Instagram page, which is managed by Alya, has over 654K followers. So if you are a fan of these looks, don't forget to support them on their social media pages.

To wear the outfit more just put straps on so it won't fall down during play. Love this so much I think I will make one for me also with straps.
To learn more about this duo, Bored Panda reached out to Alya, who kindly answered our questions. We were wondering how, over time, they have managed to maintain their mother-daughter bond. Alya shared: “Our mother-daughter bond is very special! We enjoy it to the fullest! We spend a lot of everyday time together talking and sharing a laugh. I will always be my child’s best friend & her safe place.”
It has been 3 years since we shared the last update on their work. Therefore, we were curious to know how the creative process has evolved over this time.
“My recreations became more detailed. I definitely spend much more time on each costume. I love to pay attention to the small details. It’s a fun process that I really enjoy! I use paper, cardboard, and garbage bags the most,” shared Alya.

Taylor Swift
Some of these looks look as good as the original ones, if not better. We were wondering what the most challenging and extravagant celebrity look was that Alya and Stefani have pulled off. Alya shared: “Taylor Swift’s flower dress by Oscar de la Renta was the most challenging dress to recreate. We collected the flowers from outside for a few days, then dried them, then stuck each of the flowers to the dress. It took us 4 days to get the result. There is a short video showing the process.”
“The Moschino butterfly dress was totally hand-painted and took me a couple of days to recreate it. Another dress that I enjoyed the process of recreating was this one.”
Cardi B
Zendaya
Well, I do really like monarch butterflies. They should be coming back to my gardens soon to lay their eggs on the milkweed plants I have growing.
As Stefani grows older, we wanted to know how Alya envisions her role evolving in the creative process. Alya shared: “She loves fashion and enjoys our 'look like a celebrity' photoshoots. She loves modeling a lot too. She easily recreates poses, and her facial expressions are always so good. She has model/actress experience here in Turkey. We will continue to recreate looks as long as she would like to. She draws her own designs, and I believe if she wants to she can be a great designer. But also she loves science, reads a lot, is interested in economics & politics and says that she wants to be a president when she grows up.”
“She can be whatever she wants, and I’ll always support her and be there for her.”
Zendaya
And lastly, Alya told us about their fanbase: “I always say that our followers are the best! They are always very kind and supportive! And we get great feedback that inspires us to continue working on recreations & other content. Many of our followers are with us from BoredPanda’s first post about Stefani.”
“We appreciate our followers! And we are thankful for their support! I’m working on another celebrity look now, and I can’t wait to share it soon!”
Zendaya
That’s just such a weird look but then it seems Zendaya is one of those beautiful people who literally would look fabulous in a potato sack. Me on the other hand…

Take the batteries out and you might be able to fit a lipgloss, or maybe some cash.

Kids run around all summer in shorts and tank tops showing much more than this. Besides, she’s basically playing dress up as kids have done forEVER. Adult’s sexual kids then scream and cry the kids are being sexualized by drag queens, transsexuals, democrats, anyone they don’t care for, never themselves. She was showing part of a leg and a shoulder while playing dress up. Who you gonna blame that on? Oddly, sexual never entered my mind…until it was mentioned by adults.
I think she looks adorable and she’s having fun and completely nailed the look. She’s not showing anything. And she’s like ten. I don’t see how that’s too much when she’s literally a child that hasn’t even hit puberty yet

i love the earrings in both! they go well with the dress.

Angela Basset has an insane look on her face; I’m curious what was going on at the moment the photographer shouted to her to look his way. Or maybe I’m not curious; the explanation might freak me out. 😕 At least the little kid looks perfectly sane in her photo. She’s such a pro! 👏🏻
I don't think anything was going on. They're taking dozens if not hundreds of pictures in the span of a few seconds. Even moving your face a little can often photograph in a way that makes you look weird.

I like how Mom designs her creations age-appropriately. And the kid is just precious. Well done, you two!

This young lady is a stunner! She's got so much more natural beauty than the "other" model here.

I'm not sure I'd say they look up to them. They're just having fun redoing the clothing and poses. Not necessarily idolizing the actresses/models themselves.

The kid is fantastic! Better than the original, cute, appropriate her age. Here she looks a little bit like medieval princess-saint. Brava, mama.
The kid really nailed all of these:) it's creative and I'd really like to see more of these lol
I love the kid's resting beech face. She really nailed it.
