Chinese fashion designer Laurence Xu introduces embroidered cocktail dresses and jumpsuits of the haute couture collections at his atelier in Beijing, China, 16 June 2017. It's been 18 months since Laurence Xu made his impressive debut in Paris at the haute couture collections in July 2013 with his exquisitely embroidered cocktail dresses and jumpsuits, the colourful summation of thousands of hours of delicate handwork at his atelier in Beijing. He returned to the Paris catwalk with his second presentation of hand-painted and vividly embroidered cocktail dresses and gowns inspired by the extraordinary Buddhist frescoes that decorate the caves in the Dunhuang region of northern China. Xu might find international admirers but when it comes to clientele his classicism and unfaltering Chinese aesthetic can be limiting. Graduated from the Central Academy of Craft Art at Tsinghua University, Laurence Xu made his fashion dream come true through producing delicate designs with exquisite and traditional Chinese techniques.
