敬请期待中文版  Picture credit: Indigital WHILE THE FASHION industry worldwide is debating the how,when and where clothes should be offered to the paying public,Jason Wu was the still, small voice of calm. The designer had one word to say about the collection thatwas one of the first to open the New York season: "immaculate".This was Wu's description of the short dresses, perhaps fancied upwith ribbon fastenings and bows, baring the back. It applied to thetextural effects of feather tufts and brocade finishes that gave asurface interest. And all this simplicity with grace will no doubtwork for First Lady Michelle Obama, one of Wu's favouritecustomers.

"That is my response to all the craziness outthere.  Picture credit: Indigital "When it comes to luxury it has to be impeccably made, beautifulclothes. That isn't mass market. We can't compete with that and weshouldn't."  Picture credit: Indigital The words of Wu, 33, are a small act of defiance against theluxury moguls and the fast-fashion giants. And although he does nothave a world-shattering view of fashion, his stance iscommendable.  Picture credit: Indigital (责任编辑：admin) |
