According to the caption from the article, this is RTW from Hermes. the Indian style. She sure looks like she's ready for a "viva vacation"

She must be one of the very few clients (or maybe her stylist) who ordered it OFF the runway. I was told these are so pricey that they were made to order only.

And her shoes are also from Hermes.

Can't help wondering why these "fusion" saris are so expensive....... in comparison to the more elaborate and intricate designs/fabrics from other designers. She has a great figure and amazing legs though

apparently the applications are real silver and gold threads embroidered by hand !
(mind you i do not know if that is true as it was not my manager who told me that it was a sa i never work with) but i know from my manager that these "european" saris have sold oh so well with a new clientele of london indians

According to Apple Daily News, she is just a model that's modeling the outfit in a function...

Famous resell boutiques such as MILAN STATION or PARIS STATION are very expensive, a 30cm birkin is about US11,000 and I was quoted roughly US20,000 for a USED 30cm ostrich. You can find better deals on eBay. Also, HK based online resellers such as let-trade offer more reasonable prices, you can contact them directly when you come to HK and negotiate the price in person.

beautiful birkin. Does it say what the specs are for the birkin? Looks like lizard or a croc again. It's such a pretty shade of red, anyone know the official name of this color? Seems like Mr.Lau's assistant's got the best birkin collection in hong kong!
