Label Text:Chinese-born Han Feng quickly rose to fame after presenting her first collection at New York Fashion Week in 1992. She was consistently praised for her masterful drapery and innovative silhouettes. Although elegant, this ensemble also makes a playful reference to the designer’s culture: the print of the green silk was taken from a Chinese tea box.
