OLIVIA YIP

 Meet Olivia Yip, a rising star out of Hong Kong, aka Olivia Couture. Starting out as a graphic designer, Olivia moved on to fashion once she saw the volume of creativity offered in bridal and special occassion wear.  The press worldwide loves her work, the British press in particular after the
impression she made at Harrogate, in England; Peta Hunt of You & Your Wedding had this to say in reference to her designs, “true romantics with a twist” Olivia has since been added to the list of top British designers who showed their stuff in London at the premiere of White Gallery last May. Above and below are just a few pieces from her new collection.  You can see more on her site.
