Undersea Jewelry Dresses

Lucky Bride Walks Down the Aisle in a 99,999 Pearl Wedding Dress

— April 22, 2011 — Lifestyle
The bride of Peng Yu may be the luckiest women in the world, as she walked down the aisle in a 99,999 pearl wedding dress. Peng conveniently runs a pearl company in the Chinese city of Beihai, and decided on the number 99,999 because it has the same pronunciation as "long-term or forever."

The sewing of 99,999 pearls into a wedding dress was no easy task. The bride-to-be's seven sisters sewed each pearl onto the dress over a period of more than a year. The gown weighs about 20 pounds and is up for a Guinness World Record. Ladies, I recommend taking a good long look at the 99,999 pearl wedding dress, because you will probably never see anything like it again.
Trend Themes
1. Underwater Luxury Fashion - The trend of using deep-sea resources to create luxury apparel and fashion accessories using pearls, sea shells, and other marine materials, could lead to new innovative ways of manufacturing clothes and jewelry.
2. Handcrafted Pearl Couture - The trend of using traditionally handcrafted techniques for manufacturing clothing and jewelry, like sewing pearls on wedding dresses, could possibly inspire new technologies that replicate these techniques at scale and optimize the manufacturing processes.
3. Sustainable Marine-resource-based Products - The trend of using marine resources in design and manufacturing could lead to new opportunities to create more sustainable products that protect the environment and promote eco-consciousness.
Industry Implications
1. Luxury Apparel - The luxury apparel industry could potentially leverage the market demand for unique and exclusive fashion using marine resources such as pearls, sea shells, and other marine materials.
2. Jewelry - The jewelry industry could benefit by capitalizing on the trend of using marine resources materials and brain-storm new ways to create unique and innovative jewelry designs.
3. Sustainable Fashion - The sustainable fashion industry could leverage the trend towards using organic materials and reduce the environmental impact of the fashion industry by using marine resources in their manufacturing processes.
