Anna Sui FW 24

Obsessed with the Whodunnit! Getting lost in a good story, the mystery of surprise and a colorful cast of characters, it’s not unlike creating a fashion collection.…

„Miss Marple is my favorite character from the Agatha Christie novels. I enjoyed watching all the BBC TV productions, whether in a quaint English countryside or the bustling city of London. Everyone dressing in tailored tweeds, fetching fair isles, and charming crochet collars garb, and Miss Marple with her iconic Gladstone bag,“ tells Anna Sui about her FW 24 collection.

The first color palette is inspired by Clarice Cliff, a woman potter who designed ceramics for the emerging working women of the 1920’s and 30’s. Hues of marmalade, cinnamon, curry mustard and tea rose. Mixed with tobacco, toffee, russet, and chocolate! The Londonderry tweed and Cotswold plaid, Camden check, railroad stripe and fair isle fleece, tapestry and tea rose satin mixed with the English rose and Bloomsbury bud prints in crepe, satin, and velvet. There are also argyle knits, ombre crochet, faux leather, and faux curly lamb.

The Second delivery, inspired by Virginia Woolf book covers, with shades of Bristol blue, black and cream. Patterns inspired by the Art Nouveau art of Aubrey Beardsley, printed on both the delicate crinkle chiffon and the textured corduroy. The Bluebell Velour Knit, Floral Leather Lace, Crushed Velvet, Ombre Plaid, Jubilee studded Velvet, Crochet Knit, Cornflower Tweed, Blooming Mesh, Primrose Puff Print on chiffon, and hand-knit sweaters inspired by the artistic and bohemian style of the Bloomsbury Group.

The Evening collection embraces the glamour and sophistication of 30’s London nightclubs with metallic Brocade and sparkling elements, paillettes, bugle bead and sea nymph sequins.

 

Pat McGrath and her team blend English countryside beauty with 1930s London vibrancy, drawing from literary figures and BIBA’s ’60s glamour. The makeup, inspired by BIBA with a Virginia Woolf twist, features rich browns and burgundies for dark, smoldering eyes and lips against luminous skin. Matte shadows sculpt eyes, black mascara coats lashes, and dewy cream blush adds a soft flush. The look is completed with a decadent burgundy lipstick for a beautiful, blurred finish.
