CRAZY RICH ASIAN
MOVIE COSTUME 2019
Carven Ong showcases exceptional artistry in costume design through a series of bespoke creations crafted for a major blockbuster film styled by Mary E. Vogt. Among the most memorable is the extravagant wedding ensemble worn in the iconic on-screen ceremony—an innovative multi-layered look combining a sheer Swarovski-encrusted jumpsuit with a dramatic overskirt, designed to accentuate the actress’s ballet-trained silhouette.
The film further features a striking golden jumpsuit inspired by the vibrant 70s disco era, created to express the character’s bold, celebratory spirit during her bachelorette festivities. Another custom piece, a delicately beaded mini dress, appeared in a humorous montage that captured the film’s playful tone.
These designs not only highlight Carven Ong’s mastery in couture construction, detail, and character-driven storytelling, but also mark a significant milestone for the brand’s contribution to the global film industry—bringing Malaysian craftsmanship to an international audience through creativity, innovation, and impeccable tailoring.
