That dess/suit was made by the designer (Mugler) she has been wearing for a small series of outfits she has been wearing. This particular one was brought out of a museum just for this premiere and she even had to change out of it after doing the carpet walk. It was made in 1995, inspired by and modeled after the robot from Metropolis.
I know it is odd to have a bunch of nerds try and read about fashion, but it is interesting. It wasn’t some “look at me not be a disney kid” thing.
The shoulders, elbows, and knees actually look like decent armor joints; overlapping plates with decent bend room and interior cloth covers. I’m really hoping it’s some kind of stiff fabric because the entire hip/thigh region would be something awful in metal.
I think she changed outfits and this was just for the red carpet. I can’t imagine how she could move around and sit wearing that. She had 2 assistants just to help her walk to the center of the carpet.
The first one was good, but I need a re-watch before taking on part 2.
But also… WTF?

One of those child actors literally became a pornstar
It’s a job.
Not the first time that’s happened.
To be fair, I’ve only read the books once years ago. But I DON’T Remember the glass and chrome bodysuit.
This, as near as I can tell, not from the movie, she wore it to the opening.
Goofy posture. goofy outfit. Bare ass. 10/10
I dunno what I’m looking at but I’m here for it
I wonder what the mobility and articulation is like in that thing.
Hopefully better than it looks?
