Actress Gong Li was on hand to cut the ribbon for the opening of Louis Vuitton’s Huaihai Global Store in downtown Shanghai yesterday looking beautiful wearing all black.

Last night she was also at the unveiling of LV’s Pudong Global Store at the Shanghai IFC Mall.

It’s the first time the French luxury house opened two stores in the same city on the same day.

Gong Li is a goddess, and she’s very much the first Lady of Louis Vuitton which is why invited to be part of these store openings.

She’s always front row or attending a chic LV party.

The Asian actress is the first to wear a look from the Louis Vuitton Fall 2010 collection.

I love her vintage velvet floral dress which has an dirndl-esque petticoat skirt.

I would’ve liked to have seen this dress without the necklace, but it’s still a fabulous look.

I hope we’ll see more of these dresses on the red carpet.

Unfortunately this was the best picture I could find.
