Katniss Everdeen

I am really impressed when I saw the wedding gown on Jennifer Lawrence (Katniss Everdeen) in her new film "Catching Fire". It is absolutely gorgeous and stunning!

The dress is the work by a a lesser-known fashion designer named Tex Saverio in Jakarta. The gown is from his 2012 bridal collection – as a Swarovski-crystal-covered “organza corset under a metal cage” with a voluminous organza and chiffon skirt.

There are pieces around the waist that are laser-cut. They’re like feathers — almost between a peacock and mockingbird feather. And there is small laser-cut feathers that go around between the bottom of the metal cage and Katniss’ hip. The rest of the bottom of the skirt is all organza and chiffon ruffles.

The metal pieces rising up from the bodice are meant to signify fire and flames, while laser-cut feathers at the waist and shoulder hint at Katniss eventual transition into a Mockingjay.

P.S. Jennifer Lawrence won the Best Actress in a Leading Role in the 2012 Academy Award.  She is one of the youngest winners for Acting at her age of 22.
