Elaine Zhong Chuxi is one of those names you can’t help but notice, whether you’re a fan of great films or stunning fashion. The Chinese-born actress quickly became a star to watch in both industries, especially in the Chinese entertainment industry. Just recently Elaine stunned at the Hourglass Cosmetics Fashion Gala in Shanghai, wearing no other than Mark Bumgarner.
But acting is just one part of what makes Elaine so captivating. She’s also a rising force in the fashion world. With her striking looks and natural confidence, she’s a red-carpet favorite, effortlessly pulling off bold, sophisticated styles.
Elaine’s known for her love of clean lines, structured silhouettes, and those unexpected details that make her stand out. It is a natural choice then to go for a Mark Bumgarner look for the gala night.
We spoke to Mark to find out the details behind the look.
“This dress is made with the softest silk chiffon and is delicately draped on a corset that provides structure and shape. Its asymmetrical neckline and defined waist somehow makes this perfect balance of structure and romance,” says Mark.
Mark has been dressing up Chinese stars more and more recently, including Wang He and Hai Qing, and also Taiwanese actress and singer Puff Kuo. When asked about how this fateful red carpet with Elaine came to be Mark narrates how her stylist, Cream Macao, reached out to his team: “She sent us Elaine's PR kit and was amazed at how accomplished this young actress is in fashion [through her] fashion magazine covers, red carpets, and international brand ambassadorship. We replied yes and then the rest is history.”
