Rucksack Wedding For A Dancer
Anouk is a dancer, she teaches streetdance, zumba
and theatre dance. She discovered Peter George at a
show in Rotterdam and loved his work. “If I ever get
married, he will make the dress” she promised herself.
And when the event was there Peter George designed
a versatile dress for her, in fact three dresses in one: a
jacket for during the day, when the wedding ceremony
took place with a lot of relatives attending.
Then the crowd moved to a restaurant for a reception.
At the dinner Anouk could take off the jacket. For the
evening party from 22.00 hrs (obviously with a lot of
dancing going on) she could take off the top skirt and
attach spectacular sleeves to her dress.
“I had one silly wish” Anouk tells, “at the time
everybody knew me carrying a rucksack all the
time, so I asked him if he could do something with
rucksack, and he did: it was very cleverly integrated in
the jacket.”
Anouk obviously was not the type for a white wedding.
The skirt and top were made of a greenish printed real
silk, the top skirt of a bronze shiny material that looked
like gold in the sun.
In fact, the dress is an object of art, so Anouk has put
up the dress in her living room.
Peter George also made the suit for her husband, with
two diff erent shirts to go with it. And her mother in law
also ordered her outfi t with him.
So this was a complete d’Angelino’s wedding…!
