I only wish I could convey the textures better. Every woman at the exhibit was just itching to touch the dresses, but of course we restrained ourselves.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Carla</b> and <b>Bijou </b>and <b>TG</b>, thank you for those links -- I will follow up!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Column</b>, that is such an interesting and astute observation. I had not thought of it that way but you are very likely right.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Helena,</b> that really was a dress made of a crystal! I'm not sure exactly what the skirt was made of (plastic?) because I couldn't touch it, but that one appeared to be hard and firm. It may have been silk on wires, treated with something to stiffen it.&nbsp;</p> <p>And yes, imagine trying to use the bathroom in one of these! Some were real dresses for real people, though, and we also watched a video of the models on the catwalk. I do admit they looked a bit terrified as they walked in those shoes!&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/guo-pei-photo-heavy#post-1989879 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 18:11:31 +0000 Joyce B 1989879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So beautiful and look at those booties!<br /> Thank you for sharing with us, Suz.

Thank you for the photos AND the insights! I love how fashion, like all art, is also a comment on culture—so I mean the following as a cultural critique, not a political one: I have been convinced, for example, that the high-low mixing trend of the early Obama years in the U.S. (think ripped jeans or tees with Chanel jackets) reflected the economy and was further reflected by the first lady`s early JCrew style choices. One could buy the look at consignment stores. While the return to matchy-matchy pant suits, for example, reflects or anticipates an improved economy, as seen on Melania Trump. Consumers must shell out more $$$ up front, and at retailers, to get the look. Fashion is an expression or response, as you indicate, to the world around us. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/guo-pei-photo-heavy#post-1989765 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 10:12:51 +0000 Style Fan 1989765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous!&nbsp; Amazing work and interesting story behind the pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/guo-pei-photo-heavy#post-1989760 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 09:40:55 +0000 Staysfit 1989760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous! I am not able to pick a favorite because each is so fabulous! It’s fun to imagine a life where I could wear one of these dresses for a few hours! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/guo-pei-photo-heavy#post-1989749 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 06:33:26 +0000 DonnaF 1989749@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous eye candy! But quite a problem if the wearer ever has to go to the bathroom, sit down or ride in a car! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/guo-pei-photo-heavy#post-1989739 Tue, 08 Jan 2019 05:29:26 +0000 deb 1989739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh wow!!! the only place it was in in the US was Georgia.
