A combination of exuberant colours and rich textures, Yang Du presents her graduate collection of a bright colour palette in faux fur and knitting. Drawing inspiration from her recent trip to Egypt.the chinese born london based designer explores the cultural clash of the East and the West in the ancient country. The silhouett of the collection remains simple, including an array of cape-like jumpers in fake fur and shift dresses with stuffed bottoms. Du describes her style as ” relaxed, humorous and always a bit of sexy in a subtle way.” With the work experience at John Galliano, Vivienne Westwood and Giles Deacon already under her belt, Du continues along her fashion path, inspired by love and life.
