It\u2019s very collage-y,\u201d Anna Sui told WWD of <a href=\"https:\/\/wwd.com\/menswear-news\/mens-fashion\/p-johnson-estelle-manor-oxlip-themed-capsule-1238994125\/\" id=\"related_article_link_resort-2\" data-tag=\"resort-2\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">resort<\/a> 2027.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tTitled\u00a0\u201cThe Only Blonde in the World,\u201d the season began with Sui\u2019s fascination with Pauline Boty, the lone woman associated with London\u2019s 1960s Pop Art movement. But rather than simply borrowing imagery, Sui adopted the artist\u2019s approach, assembling references from Marilyn Monroe, lingerie, denim, Western wear and cocktail dressing into her collection.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe lineup unfolded in distinct chapters built around color stories pulled from Boty\u2019s paintings \u2014 rich chocolate and nude tones, vibrant jade green and Sui\u2019s signature lavender-inflected romanticism. Throughout, the designer demonstrated a talent for connecting seemingly unrelated ideas. Crushed velvet jackets trimmed with lace were paired with patchworked denim, embroidered mesh dresses mingled with fringe-trimmed knits and Western-inspired separates were softened by florals and rosettes.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tWhat gave the collection its emotional weight was its conversation with Sui\u2019s own history. Lace camisoles created with artist Ellen Berkenblit revisited designs the designer once coveted at the cult SoHo lingerie boutique Le Corset. \u201cI was her biggest customer,\u201d Sui recalled, describing weekly visits to discover new pieces. Elsewhere, patchworked denim appliqu\u00e9s were developed with Michelle Kim, a former design assistant who worked alongside Sui in the 1990s and early 2000s.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe collection also reflected an evolution in the business. Sui noted that retailers, including Net-a-porter, are increasingly embracing separates alongside the dresses that have long defined the brand. That shift was visible throughout the lineup, where skirts, jackets, knitwear and layering pieces received equal attention.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n\tThe result felt less like a themed collection than a map of Sui\u2019s creative universe, where decades-old friendships, personal obsessions and cultural references coexisted comfortably. While nostalgia remains fashion\u2019s default setting, she always offers something more personal: a collection that revisits the past not as a source of replication, but as an ongoing dialogue that is reflective, lived-in and 100 percent <a href=\"https:\/\/wwd.com\/pop-culture\/celebrity-news\/chase-sui-wonders-fall-1998-anna-sui-sundance-1238501511\/\" id=\"related_article_link_anna-sui\" data-tag=\"anna-sui\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Anna Sui<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cIt\u2019s kind of like how I put the collection together.
