About Guo Pei Almost two decades before Rihanna wore the now-iconic yellow cape to the Met Gala in 2015, she was already the designer of choice for high society and the political elite at home in China.
In recent years, her Chinese bridal line has entered the mainstream, favoured by celebrities like Angelababy. In 2016, Guo Pei became the first China-born-and-trained fashion designer to be invited to join the esteemed Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture. That year, she was also named one of TIME Magazine’s “100 Most Influential People”. Her works have been shown in museums worldwide, including the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the National Silk Museum of China, the National Gallery of Victoria, Melbourne, and the SCAD FASH Museum of Fashion + Film in Atlanta.
