Anna Sui
Pronunciation: ah-na su-ee
This silvery lace frock is engagement party perfect.
Anna Sui’s not just a designer, she’s the creator of a whole aesthetic most easily seen in her SoHo store. Done up in her signature shades of purple and black, this Greene Street shop perfectly executes her high fashion punk rock thrift shop boho chic aesthetic – we don’t just want to wear the clothes, we want to live the life. Since getting her start as a Parsons grad in the early eighties, Sui’s been expanding her empire with locations throughout Asia and America, not to mention clothing starlets like Christina Ricci to Sofia Coppola.
This silver scalloped Metallic Lace Dress is ideal for a night of champagne cocktails and fairy lights, perhaps at a holiday party or two? Nothing welcomes the New Year like a bit of glam glitter. We love her adorable black rose-adorned cosmetics line, too, especially the glorious gothic red glitter of Anna Sui Gloss Lipstick #403.
