My theory is that Rihanna and Guo Pei are making a statement about Rihanna, about what a queen she is. It is kind of crazy that she's wearing something only a male emperor would be allowed to wear. Only Rihanna could pull it off.
Guo Pei is well-known for referencing ancient Chinese history in her work. In the past, the designer has gotten attention for dresses resembling Ming dynasty vases or traditional Chinese fans.
Although she sits at the pinnacle of China's design world -- her work includes some of the most dazzling costumes from the 2008 Beijing Olympics Opening Ceremony -- Guo's artistry has not completely caught on in the Western fashion world.
"This whole exhibition was about celebrating the influence of Chinese fashion -- yet no one understood the significance of Rihanna wearing a yellow cape with traditional Chinese embroidery," says Duan. "It's disappointing but not surprising."
