Rihanna in Guo Pei, 2015, China: Through the Looking Glass
The exhibition was about how China has shaped Western fashion, and Rihanna answered it with the real thing: a canary-yellow cape by the Beijing couturier Guo Pei, embroidered in gold and trimmed with fur, worn over a short pink dress. The piece weighs about 25 kilograms and took some two years to make, and its train needed several attendants on the steps. It made Guo Pei famous in the West almost overnight.
