Sue Wong Fall/Winter Collection
1920's Era Inspires Female Flights of Fantasy
Sue Wong's exotic harem girl and Andalusian gypsy represent eternal female archetypes
embodied in her spectacular Fall / Winter Collection from Mercedes Benz Fashion
Week at Smashbox Studios.
Sue Wong presents the Odalisque, a beautiful and exotic harem girl
who holds the prince captive with her allure, in the form of silk georgette, silk
devoré, and silk charmeuse evening dresses ready for the fall social season.
Her choice of color palette includes sienna, gold, copper, cinnebar, and jasper
for a distinctly opulent, arabian style.
Sue Wong Fall/Winter Nocture Collection plays off of the gypsy muse with Flamenco
gowns, plunging necklines, and layered ruffles. This muse was a literary figure
modeled after Zelda Fitzgerald, Colette, and the flapper icon. This look evokes
the classic Jazz Age with elongated dress torso, uneven hemlines, and that "improvised"
feel.
A strong element of fantasy informs the work of Sue Wong, magically transforming
the woman into a darkly elegant vamp or celestial angel, as her heart leads. Sue
Wong Fall/Winter Collection embodies this transformation. |
