The gown is part of Hoa’s "Love No.3" collection, which was inspired by the parallels between the development of a romantic relationship and the seasonal changes in nature.

"We witness love blossoming and gradually becoming a lifelong commitment, in parallel with the natural cycle of spring, summer, autumn, and winter," Hoa explained. "Each design [in the collection] carries a unique message and emotion, just like how each love story has its special marks."

The gown Midu chose is crafted in a pristine white mermaid style that snugly fits the body, accentuating the wearer’s shape. Its bodice and heart-shaped neckline elegantly expose the wearer’s collarbones, while the primary feature of the outfit is its shimmering effect, created by applying detailed hand-embellished techniques on high-quality lace.

The design also features a detachable wide flare tail that enhances the bridal look with majesty and charm. Hoa emphasized the waist with a belt, which serves as a focal point of the ensemble and further defines the wearer’s silhouette.

The designer said he and his team of skilled artisans spent three weeks crafting the outfit.

Midu’s wedding ceremony is scheduled for June 29, and the identity of her husband is still undisclosed.
