Sue Wong - L.A. Fashion Week Fall 2007
by Yuan-Kwan Chan
Sue Wong’s Fall 2007 collection was all about fun, and it showed in the presentation. The L.A.-based designer staged a runway show of epic proportions that included 77 looks (the majority of the New York conveyer-belt productions typically include 30 to 40), themed segments and a go-go dancer introduction all paying homage to Britain in the swinging ‘60s.
From her sequined
“Mod Squad” mini-dresses to a finale of a trio of bridal gowns,
Wong provided much to admire in an ambitious Fall 2007 collection featuring
nothing but dresses, all for a variety of occasions. While the quantity
could have been pared down in favor of quality – Wong’s bohemian
and more casual creations were not as unique as her more formal options
– the less interesting dresses were forgiven thanks to an infectious
soundtrack and pleasantly distracting accessories in the forms of handbags,
head pieces by Mannolo Sanz and jewelry.
