Lin Peng's Phoenix Gown

Perhaps to challenge Fan Bingbing's Dragon Gown that she wore at the Cannes Film Festival, Lin Peng walked the red carpet at the Shanghai International Film Festival wearing the 'Phoenix Gown'. According to earlier reports, Jackie Chan had commissioned the gown which was hand-painted with embroidered peonies and presumably very expensive. Unlike the Dragon Gown which had a wave motif, the Phoenix Gown has a flame theme. Due to the secrecy, even Lin Peng did not see the gown until 11pm the night before. She spend six hours getting her makeup done and another four hours for her hair for the red carpet walk. Lin Peng herself if frequently referred to as 'Dragon Lady', the dragon, of course being Sing Lung, Jackie Chan. Wonder what Mrs. Chan has to say about this?
