Yellowstone Silk Gown

Green silk cheongsam gown

It was a pleasure to design this gown for Xuan Ong, the lead actress of sci-fi comedy “We Can Save The World”. For the movie premiere, the look had to be futuristic, vibrant, fun and elegant. I chose A.Oei’s Yellowstone Silk Print with a sleeveless qipao silhouette, combined with blue silk organza panelling.

Glide Silk Gown

In contrast to the bold colors of the Yellowstone Silk Gown, I took a more subtle approach to this shift gown for Singapore actress, Tan Kheng Hua. The ease and simplicity of the style and the fresh colors of the print, reflected Kheng Hua’s free-spirited personality, and was more fitting for this gala event.

A little more about this print:

This pattern is a sketch of a Cooper’s hawk. On the fourth day of the year, this hawk crashed into my apartment’s window and subsequently landed on the balcony where it remained stunned for a few hours. As a city dweller, this was certainly a unique experience, a symbol of courage, to remember and celebrate.

This pattern comes in two colors:

1) Glide, a Spring color palette of electric blue and neon green on a white base.

2) Yellowstone, a fiery combination of forest green, white and orange, inspired by the colors of the hot springs in Yellowstone National Park.
