Good point. The simplicity is just on the surface: Yeohlee creates sculptural forms, exploring the structural possibilities of the metallic cloth, a cloth that is soft and rigid at the same time, soft is the end result of the garment, rigid is the material itself. There is a paradox here that is not 'simple'. The metallic textile moves in time and space. ‘The lines and balance of the piece keep the viewer interested even though it is extremely simple.’

When I first looked at it, I kept staring. I agree with many other entries here that it is architectural. The lines and balance of the piece keep the viewer interested even though it is extremely simple. I find this dress simple and modern, yet very intriguing. When I first looked at it, I kept staring.

Sure its not for everyone. But the right woman, with the right body, and right confidence can easily pull this off. Kudos. The piece is perfection. Sure its not for everyone.
