This is some background on the designer i met in London
Wang Wei, a Shanghai native but based in London , one of the first-class couture in the young generation, has made a big career and builds up himself a high reputation on the global stage. Though he is only 33 years old, his age is not an obstacle for his design, which is definitely not immature or tawdry, but connotational and expert. Unobtrusive as he is, however, he endeavors to work out intensity, vigor, and ardor. His outstanding performance in the past has already won him strong support form some global groups like Lycra, Tencel, L’Oreal and Itouch and high remarks from renown professional media as Vogue, Elle. Thanks to his endowment in the field of design and his strong perception of aesthetics, some of the most fastidious British buyers are feeling inclined to his garments.
Wang Wei Gallery, the personal studio of Wang Wei, was set up London in year 2006. The launch of his debut showcase at London Fashion Week in February was an instant success, which was followed by abundant good feedbacks from not only the professionals, the media, but the buyers as well. This time, with his new collection, he made himself again the highlight of the exhibition. As you could learn during the show, “Shade of Color”, is the inspiration, or the pivot of the season. The color scheme of this season is used to interpret “light in space”, with a focus on intense whites, light grays and complementary darker shades, just like the colors hidden in the corner. It tends to explore a comfortable interrelation, as one between light and shadow; it ventures further, mixing together what has been deconstructed, seeking equilibrium of stark contrasts. To achieve such effect of light and color, the designer insisted using high-quality material from Japan . 100% cotton and silk, the two simple but pure fabrics, help him to deliver his thoughts in a rather implicit way, which closely accord to the essence of oriental culture. However, at the same time you might be shocked and impressed by the force lying behind; and be surprised by the static beauty. The whole collection is to give you an ingenious stroll in “Shade of Color”.
