Le Bon in Amazing Rolland Dress

Le Bon in the gown showcased at Rolland\'s show Designer Stephane Rolland presented his Spring 2012 couture collection in Paris, and model Yasmin Le Bon donned a 50 kilo Rolland dress as she made her way down the haute couture runway

.
The dress was a tribute to material by the designer and took the form of square metre upon square metre of red silk jersey fabric with lacquered metal applique detailing.

At its longest point, the fabric on the dress was 45 metres long, and the dress weighs 50 kilos probably almost as much as Yasmin herself weighs
Elsewhere in the show, models wore gowns in a strict palette of red, lime green, black and ivory. The cuts were kept simple, but highly-sculptural, showing off beautiful silhouettes and, more importantly, fabric in its purest form. Rolland\'s spring-summer haute couture offering was inspired by the work of kinetic artist Michel Deverne, and his floor-sweeping gowns were kept ultra-simple to show off the movement of the materials.
