London -

Nama Ralph & Russo tiba-tiba meroket setelah salah satu gaun karyanya dipakai Meghan Markle untuk foto pertunangan. Namun empat tahun berselang, bisnis rumah mode berbendera Inggris ini berada di ambang kebangkrutan.

Ralph & Russo mengumumkan tengah mengajukan bantuan kepada pemerintah terkait masalah finansial akibat efek pandemi COVID-19.

Eksis sejak 2010, Ralph & Russo didirikan oleh duo desainer Australia Tamara Ralph dan Michael Russo. Mereka terkenal dengan koleksi be-spoke yang hanya dijual satu versi per negara.

Karya-karya mereka sudah menempel di deretan selebriti ternama. Sebut saja Angelina Jolie, Gwyneth Paltrow dan Beyonce.

Pada 2017, sorotan dunia tertuju pada Ralph & Russo berkat foto pertunangan Meghan Markle dan Pangeran Harry. Untuk pemotretan tersebut, Meghan berpose dalam balutan gaun menerawang koleksi Autumn/Winter 2016. Diperkirakan harga gaun ini mencapai Rp 1 miliar.
