This Stephane Rolland Dress Weighs 110 Pounds

Yasmin Le Bon modeled the finale look in Stephane Rolland's haute couture show yesterday in Paris. She was accompanied on the runway by two smart-looking male models — and probably not just because they're pretty. Le Bon's red dress weighed in at 110 pounds (that's 147.5 feet of jersey fabric), so they'd probably been tasked with carrying her or at least part of her dress's expansive train if things got to be more difficult than her regular workouts.
