Jason Wu drew inspiration for his latest collection from several decades of Chinese fashion history. Starting with the hats from the Qing dynasty, the cheongsams from 1940's Shanghai and the jackets from the Mao years of China. There's simply no better way to pay tribute to your roots than dedicating an entire collection to it.
Mao's military inspired jackets with structured shoulders and gold hardware
It's not a fall collection without some Clothes with the fur, with the furrrr!
I personally liked this collection, it's a lot more dark and fierce than Wu's previous collections. I love that he's such a versatile designer, I mean if you put his Target collection next to this you wouldn't even think it's from the same person. (I kind of wished his Target collection was as form fitting and streamlined as this one..) I can't wait for the sample sale on this collection, that red jacket is MINE! lol
I rate this collection a 5 out of 5! Perfection!
Do you think it's cliche for a Chinese designer to design a Chinese themed collection or do you think it can still be creative and different?
