In March and October of this year, China’s design world tried to step it up a notch when the bi-annual fashion week descended on Beijing (and Shanghai of course, as seen at number 8) once again. Having written before that there is still room for improvement-it will surely 慢慢来 (take some time), or at least Armani seems to agree with this --I did find it especially fun to watch what the newcomers-on-the-block had to offer during the ESMOD Graduate Collection at China Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2013.
At the risk of generalizing, which I’m going to do anyway: I think graduate collections are usually a bit ehm... quirky… Though I do like the exaggerated ruffled-like balloon-sleeves shown here. These designs do however capture that budding designer spirit...of courage and determination (props where due). [Photo/Organizing Committee of China Fashion Week] |

ESMOD (l'Ecole Supérieure des Arts et Techniques de la Mode) is the mother of all fashion schools and was established in 1841 in, where else alors, Paris. ESMOD Beijing was founded in 2004 and is the only ESMOD-authorized school in the Middle Kingdom. Another good moment was the China Fashion Designer Top Award Winners Collection, as seen in the photos above by Xinhua’s Chen Jianli. Though the execution of the garments sometimes leaves something to be desired, the show-factor is most certainly switched on. And as Freddie said: The show must go on.
