Womenswear
To
celebrate the anniversary of the brand, for Spring / Summer 2013 we have adopted
an emphasis on Blanc de Chine color – a luscious, creamy shade of
off-white/beige. The color comes in a variety of fabrics, including luxurious
silk and our travel-friendly poly crepe. Smooth, sensuous silk was discovered in
ancient China and has attracted admirers worldwide. The delicate fabric is
generously applied in our collection to convey a woman’s elegance with an
understated nod to Chinese culture. Poly crepe has always been popular with our
customers. The fiber is made from tightly twisted yarns and admired for its
versatility. The fabric requires minimal maintenance, making our tunics and Qi
Paos the most functional of their kind.
The
women’s collection also consists of a number of formal gowns. These spectacular
pieces are made with our lightweight sequined fabric, in subtle matte with a
glamorous shimmer, which glides on the body. The designs are sensational and
subtle at the same time - with diamante crystal beadings, hidden pleats, and the
use of sheer fabrics.
Menswear
Functionality, one of Blanc de
Chine’s eight fundamental elements, is a focal point of this collection. In
light of the recent rise in temperatures across the globe, we are introducing a
revolutionary short-sleeve version of our best-selling Chinese tuxedo.
Mirroring our original Chinese
tuxedo jacket, the short-sleeve version has an elegant silk satin piping and our
meticulous thread-wrapped hook. It gives an instant slimming effect, and most
importantly, exudes subtle sophistication at a special occasion. This modern
jacket pairs well with our formal trousers as well as our new formal shorts,
both of which feature silk satin piping. A suit is never complete without a
shirt. As in past collections, this season’s shirts feature the finest cotton
from Switzerland. We’ve also included short-sleeve shirts to complement our new
short-sleeve tuxedo suit.
