Anna Sui - Autumn/Winter 2013-14

PARIS Fashion Week might still be two weeks off but Anna Sui wasn't letting that stop her bringing a lit bit of joie de vivre to NYC in the evening.

The designer was in a decidedly French - by way of the Sixties - mood and even began the show with her line-up of models doing a little dance routine at the top of the catwalk, two of them inside lit-up cages. Well, c'est show business, non?
On with the clothes in question and it was a typical and trusted outing from Sui in the shape of retro knits and big shaggy furs, bejewelled shades and bejwelled details - huge medallions hung round necks - on babydoll dresses and sweet shifts. There were prim collars to groovy short dresses over the top, capes and ladylike jackets.

Her boho Parisian chick had something of a star quality - who's that girl all eyeliner flicked and hair worn high in a tucked-in ponytail style? She's fun that's for sure and she's feeling a little Austin Powers groovy, switching from Sixties sophistication to crazy cat and girl about town - oh, and doing it to the soundtrack of Kylie's Locomotion in French all the while.

































Sui doesn't necessarily surprise but then it's always good to know there's a party you can turn up to and know it'll be a good one.
