The Making of a Dress

Eva Chen, Instagram's VP of Fashion and a longtime friend of the house wears a one-of-one gown in Klein Blue plissé silk, bonded and hand-grommeted, with fringe and a sweeping asymmetric train.

From the design studio, to the embroidery house, to the atelier. 80 hours. One dress.

"There's a tension at the heart of the dress: the plissé-bonded fabric is a technical, industrial construction — and then the hand takes over entirely. The draping, the fringe, the grommets. That interplay between machine and hand is what defines craft at Proenza Schouler. The dress itself is hypertextural, asymmetric, gossamer-light despite its scale. Not fussy. Not trying too hard. A statement, still." — Rachel Scott, Creative Director, Proenza Schouler.
