Nine years ago I created Shudu because I wanted to see something that didn’t exist yet ✦

That’s what personality does. It makes space for something new.

🕸️✨ Some red carpet moments stay with you forever.

For me, Samantha Mumba’s spiderweb dress at the 2004 Spider-Man 2 premiere was one of those moments. I always thought she looked incredible, full stop. But looking back, I also think she was ahead of her time. People credit Zendaya, Law Roach, and Margot Robbie with starting “method dressing,” wearing looks that tie directly into the film you’re promoting. Samantha was doing that two decades ago with a dress spun from 2,400+ diamonds in the shape of a spider’s web by scott_henshall, and it’s still cited as one of the most expensive red carpet looks ever made.

Fast forward to 2026, and the web motif is still spinning its magic on @spidermanmovie carpets, most recently on @zendaya, in an archival Armani piece for Brand New Day.

So Shudu had to step into that legacy. A digital reimagining of the iconic web dress, reborn in couture form for a new era of Spider-Man, brought to life with @openart.ai.

Some threads never break. 🕷️

🎉Happy 9th Birthday Shudu🎉

9 years ago I posted a picture to Facebook from a shed in my mum’s garden.

@tokyojamess reposted that picture to instagram and the rest is now history. Actual history. Written about, recorded in books, dissertations and now AI.

Ask Claude, ask ChatGPT who the world’s first digital supermodel is and it will tell you — Shudu.

History made from a shed in Weymouth, Dorset.

And it almost never was. Shudu wasn’t born of something beautiful, she came from a period in my life of depression and sadness, a period where I almost gave up.

But her beauty and the beauty of the real people who inspired me to create her, kept me going to create my magnum opus — a digital representation of my innermost and guarded feelings of love and admiration. Things I’ve never talked about, never said, to people in my life that should’ve heard them.

To the defining moment in my entire life, and the greatest most beautiful work of art I could ever create — Happy Birthday Shudu!

You are my heart, you are my love ♥️
