ABOUT KENDALL JENNER�S GOWN
Created from 85,000 hand painted and placed crystals, Jenner�s La Perla gown is a culmination of over 160 hours of work, spanning 5 cities and 26 craftsmen. Each hand painted crystal is placed en d�grad�, creating a flow of color from Diamond into Jet Hematite and finishing off in Jet Black.
�I was inspired by Rei Kawakubo�s concept of �un-fabric� and her ability to create movement out of seemingly immobile materials. So, I created my own �un-fabric� by affixing stones to a single thread, creating a beautiful and liquid suspension that mirrored the qualities of a fine silk.� � Julia Haart, La Perla Creative Director.
