The Rug Company | Secret Garden by Guo Pei

Guo Pei is a Chinese couturier renowned for her elaborate and meticulous detailing. Embodying heritage fashion, Pei rose to international fame after Rihanna wore one of her most exquisite pieces to the 2015 Met Gala.

Often referred to as China’s ‘Queen of Couture’, Pei has proved her revered status after succeeding as the first guest member of the Chambre Syndicale de la Haute Couture and the founding member of the Asian Couture Federation.

With her designs often taking years to create, this collaboration highlights our mutual respect for craftsmanship, tradition and authentic luxury.

Embellished in auspicious Chinese motifs, Secret Garden is inspired by traditional ‘dragon robes’ made popular during the Qing dynasty. This symmetrical design features elements of dragons, birds and flowers and is crafted in nine unique silk tones against a neutral wool base.
