I went to the Phoenix Art Museum two weeks ago to see a special photography exhibit and I was caught off guard by a huge exhibit located in the main gallery that is used for special large exhibits.
It was a fashion exhibit and I had never seen them put a fashion exhibit in this big gallery. It was called "The World of Anna Sui" and I have to admit, I had no idea who that was.
Anna Sui is a designer who blends rock and roll, romanticism and nostalgia for fashion's earlier days and pairs it with a rocker aesthetic.
To me, the clothes have a bit of a Bohemian look to them but, maybe that's just because of my generation.
I know I posted a lot of photos today but I had a hard time choosing just which ones to post. They were all so colorful and unique. Now I know the name; Anna Sui.
I enjoyed seeing this show very much. I certainly see the "rocker" look in many of these combinations.
ReplyDeleteThe colours and the styles are impeccable
I love her style. Like you said, it's bohemian. My son is getting married around Halloween and the attire is eclectic. Some of these dresses would be perfect!
ReplyDeleteI know the name but not really the clothes. Somehow I think her target market is not our generation, Sharon. ;-)
ReplyDeleteApparently fashion shows are big business for museums, as they tend to attract more people than stale old painters. Or so I hear.
ReplyDeleteNew to me too.
ReplyDeleteVery cool.
ReplyDeleteThat is a very creative museum.
ReplyDeleteI've heard of her but didn't really know much about her until now.
