DORIAN HO, ONE OF HONG KONG'S TOP COUTURIERS, IS COLLABORATING WITH PERRIER JOUET, ONE OF THE WORLD'S FINEST AND SPARKLIEST CHAMPAGNES, TO PRODUCE A RM 500,000 WEDDING GOWN TO BE UNVEILED ON 16 AUGUST 2012 ON THE SEXY BODY OF CELEBRITY MODEL JENNIFER TSE.


I am unable to lay my grasping fingers on the actual gown which is a TOP SECRET nor a sketch but rest assured once I get it, it will be splashed out here in lurid detail.


HERE'S A TOAST TO THE DRESS WITH THE MOST!

The Toast of Any Wedding: a Dazzling Wedding Gown from Dorian Ho, Inspired by Perrier-Jouët

Showcase at Bridal Fair that Captures the Essence of the Most Celebrated of Champagnes


 Perrier-Jouët is the drink of choice for the finest events, and this special champagne is the perfect way to celebrate a special occasion. So it's only fitting that the champagne used to toast the happy couple at so many weddings should itself inspire a spectacular wedding gown.

The Perrier-Jouët wedding gown is the work of internationally renowned fashion designer, and Perrier-Jouët brand ambassador, Dorian Ho.  During his travels to Paris for fashion week this year, he had the chance to thoroughly immerse himself in the culture of the storied champagne with a visit to Maison Belle Époque in Épernay.

Whilst working on his new collection of wedding gowns for the Island Shangri-La Bridal Fair, he became inspired by the embossed artistic anemone pattern design on the bottle of the premium Perrier-Jouët Belle Époque, which is dazzlingly transposed into the design of the champagne themed gown.  Further inspiration came from what is inside the bottle, dripping with silvery-white pearls that resemble the bubbles of Perrier-Jouët champagne.

The Perrier-Jouët wedding gown will be unveiled with the designer’s latest collection at the Island Shangri-La Bridal Fair in August this year, and showcased by celebrity model Jennifer Tse at the press conference on August 16. The price of the dazzling wedding gown is estimated to be over HK$1 million.

Commenting on the new collection, Dorian Ho said, “this is the first-ever collaboration between Perrier-Jouët and a fashion designer. Perrier-Jouët has long embraced the design community and partnered with different artists. It is my honor to be the first designer to create this wedding gown for the brand with such an elegant source of inspiration. I have tried to produce something that aspires to the same level of rarefied quality and delightful effervescence.”
