Guo Pei: Couture Beyond

Commissioned by SCAD and executive produced by SCAD President and Founder Paula Wallace, the short film Guo Pei: Couture Beyond celebrates a landmark moment in global fashion — the designer’s first solo U.S. exhibition at SCAD FASH Museum of Fashion + Film.

The fantastical imagery in Guo Pei: Couture Beyond marries the couturière’s otherworldly creations with natural wonder, evoking landscapes that exist only in the imagination. The narrative brings to life the resplendence of her exquisite designs, which successfully unite fine traditional craftsmanship and contemporary innovation.

Pei’s masterpieces have the power to transport you into a dream, filling you with love, longing, and light. Her introduction to America’s fashion cognoscenti is of universal significance and will continue to be for decades to come.

Presented in concert with the exhibition and an accompanying monograph, Guo Pei: Couture Beyond is directed by SCAD alumnus Jim Lind (B.F.A., photography, 2010). The film represents one of many unique channels through which SCAD champions the work and careers of its students and alumni.
