ABOUT MARY J BLIGE�S GOWN:
Inspired by Rei Kawakubo�s concept of �un-fabric,� Creative Director Julia Haart created hand-sculpted latex lace as the principal feature for Blige�s provocative column gown. Starting with a corset that features a built-in La Perla bra, the black stretch tulle is adorned with scalloped latex lace and hand-placed boning detail.
