Contemporary Chinese Doll

07/09/2016

Red is the colour often linked to Chinese culture where it represents luck, happiness, and love. Consequently, it is used for celebratory occasions such as Chinese New Year & weddings. Similarly, in fashion, each season sees a number of designers who get inspired by Chinese tradition. Today we are putting some of those pieces together to create a contemporary version of a Chinese Doll.

This Sacai lace dress has a bright full-on red colour with tassels draping down from the sleeves, it’s so luxurious, yet so minimal. We pair it with a embroiled Gucci bag, which showcases another Chinese Cultural hallmark - embroidery. The final touch is this adorable flats from Gucci. All the elements are very traditional, but the whole look is so modern. We are loving its contrast.

[現代中国娃娃] 红色在中国传统文化中一直有着特殊意义,而每一季我们总会看到设计師们从中国传统文化中汲取灵感,这件Sacai蕾丝裙有着鲜明漂亮的红色,袖口饰有流苏细节,低调不张扬的华丽感十分有気质,搭上这只点缀着华美的珠饰和刺绣的Gucci挎包还不够,脚踩一雙俏皮吉祥虎平底鞋,把中国元素交汇融合,用現代摩登的方式诠释,赋予中国娃娃全新定义!
