The lavish wedding of top Chinese supermodel He Mengyao and businessman He Yujun - son of "casino king" He Hongshan - at the ancient castle of over 1,000 years old Mont-Saint-Michel in France is still a hot topic in the media and social networks.
Notably, besides the Haute Couture Dior wedding dress or luxurious diamond jewelry, a detail in the couple's official wedding party on June 1 (local time) was discussed excitedly.
That evening, Qi Mengyao wore an haute couture dress from Chanel from 1989 - coinciding with her year of birth, combined with Patek Philippe watches. The overall design is in a luxurious, classic "old money" style.
But the item that attracted the most attention was the sparkling white Australian South Sea pearl necklace on her neck. What is special is that this necklace was "borrowed" from the personal collection of her mother-in-law - billionaire Luong An Ky - who owns a net worth of 2.15 billion USD (about 56 trillion VND) according to Forbes' latest update in February 2026.
According to some sources, the pearl necklace is believed to be a gift that late businessman Ha Hong San once gave to Ms. Luong An Ky and is considered a family heirloom, never appearing publicly.
In a series of behind-the-scenes photos shared by He Mengyao, the female supermodel also wore a prominent rose necklace when wearing a white lace chiffon dress. This rose necklace is also the jewelry that Ms. Liang Yinqi used to wear when taking photos with the "casino king" in her youth.
Previously, at a private guest welcome party on May 31 at the Le Normandy hotel in Deauville, Normandy (France), Qi Mengyao wore an ice blue haute couture dress from Dior's Spring-Summer 2026 collection.
This is the first time this dress model has been worn after the show, and has not even been officially launched on the market. The estimated value of the outfit is up to 300,000 CNY (about 1 billion VND). The pair of flared sandals custom-ordered from the same brand that she wore also cost nearly 10,000 CNY (about 38 million VND).
Graff's luxurious diamond jewelry set that she wore at that time was also shocking. The jewelry set included a pair of snow-shaped diamond earrings weighing 30.73 carats, a diamond bracelet weighing 66.26 carats and a ring studded with an oval diamond weighing 7.10 carats.
The total weight of the three jewelry items exceeds 103 carats. According to many industry experts, the value of the entire jewelry set ranges from 47-49 million CNY (about 180-190 billion VND).
In the official wedding on June 1, He Mengyao entered the wedding hall in a white silk Dior wedding dress. This is also the first custom-ordered wedding dress that designer Jonathan Anderson made after taking on the position of Creative Director of Dior.
The entire process of crafting is completely manual, consuming more than 600 hours of labor, going through 6 months of completion and 3 separate dress trials before the design was officially finalized.
What's even more interesting is that the initial inspiration for the wedding dress came from two cyclamen bouquets that former Creative Director John Galliano gave to Jonathan Anderson.
Meanwhile, the first time He Mengyao performed for Dior was also under Galliano, making the wedding dress even more special to her.
