Last week Chinese actress Fan Bingbing won the Internet.
Firstly she gets to be called Fan Bingbing; secondly she gets to put tassels in her hair and look stunningly beautiful, not utterly ridiculous: and thirdly she got to wear one of the most exquisite dresses I have ever, ever seen.
Her glorious embroidered dress by Christopher Bu was inspired by a Chinese porcelain vase from the Qing dynasty and tells stories of the Four Beauties of Ancient China. Her hair is worn in the style of a young noblewoman from the Tang dynasty.
She and the dress are so freakin’ beautiful that I want to hang her on my wall.

I think she doesn’t really go well with your current decorating scheme, unless you put her in the living room.
Paola says
She’d definitely go in the living room, which I would of course redecorate to accommodate her.
Lilian says
Her silly tasselled hair detracts from the beautiful gown which would make a lovely duvet cover.
Beth says
I am with you 100%. Divine!
Lisa says
Totally agree about the dress and the hair, but re your comment on wanting to hang her on your wall, I refer you again to that little Pinterest vid…

Oh My Gosh, this dress is a real masterpiece, if you ask me! I am completely stunned, not just by the design and lovely actress wearing it so graciously, but behind the history of making it!
