This a good example of mixing styles – of the Korean meeting the European – it is a mélange of traditions. It is produced in Korean silk, and you can see the gold, shiny pink, and green are made from this special textile that is usually reserved for traditional Korean costume. But here they have been used to make a Western-style dress. It is a marriage between the two worlds, and was the first time I had used traditional textiles with a very westernised evening gown. On the right side of the dresss you can see a special Korean accessory. This accessory was once only made for members of the royal family, for princesses and queens. It belongs to the very highest level of society, and I feel honoured to wear it.
It feels to me to be very feminine with the off-shoulder design, but it has many layers, 3 underskirts, and weighs 23 kilos.
Have your say.
