Milena Smit, Lorde appear in Cong Tri crotcheted gowns

In the list of top 11 best-dressed stars this week voted for by fashion magazine Vogue, Smit was in first position after wearing Tri’s black gown at New York Film Festival on Oct. 8.

According to Tri, the black gown is made from sumptuous silk, featuring his signature crochet technique and a black leather bra "that brings our Milena’s seductive elegance."

Last week, New Zealand singer Lorde performed on "The Late Late Show with James Cordon" in a Cong Tri crocheted dress.

"The see-through details that embrace Lorde’s curves and her beautiful skin reveal such an enigmatic character," Tri commented.

Ever since 2019 New York Fashion Week, at which Tri first showcased his collection and earned a lot of kudos, his global popularity has been on the rise, with a number of celebrities choosing to wear his creations to high-profile events.

This year, actresses Rebecca Ferguson, Jennifer Hudson, Charlize Theron, Hailee Steinfeld, Kelly Marie Tran and singers Bebe Rexha, Leslie Grace, Jazmine Sullivan, and Becky G all sported his outfits at several events.

Smit, 25, is best known for her roles in "Cross the Line" (2020), "The Girl in the Mirror" (2021), and "Parallel Mothers" (2021).

Lorde, 24, became famous after her EP "Royals" was released in 2013. The hit helped her gain the first rank on Billboard Hot 100, New Zealand’s Top 40, and many other international charts.
