Maybe because I’m always looking for the right balance between being a dolly girl or a rocky girl…
Forse perché sono continuamente in bilico tra l’essere una ragazza bambola o una ragazza rock…
Maybe because beyond the sweetness of a doll I’m always looking for a way to “settle” a little corner of this Earth.
Perhaps due to my endless love and fascination towards the East – Hong Kong has captured my soul and colored inextricably my mind with its flashing lights. The nostalgic grey sky and its surreal tall buildings.
Or due to a personal innate attitude to consider “real fashion” the one creative, conceptual, contrasting and inspirational that you can breathe and observe in the streets of the planet…I’ve being easily slipped into Anna Sui‘s anarchic, colorful layered and retro referenced world. Her clothing and her place reminds to the Age of Aquarius rock stars and to Belle Époque. What she loves?!?! It is not a mystery!
– The white stripes – the Rolling Stones – Visconti and Fellini’s movies (and I, as Italian, feel honored about it) – Gary Cooper – New York City – Louis Garrel…if you are curious check out the all list here http://www.annasui.com/en/anna-sui-biography.html
Forse perché oltre la dolcezza di una bambola sono sempre alla ricerca di un modo per “colonizzare” un piccolo angolo di questa Terra. Forse per lo sconfinato amore e fascino che provo per l’Oriente – Hong Kong ha catturato la mia anima e colorato la mia mente con le sue luci incessanti. Il nostalgico cielo grigio e i suoi alti edifici quasi surreali. O forse a causa di una attitudine innata di considerare ” vera moda” quella creativa, concettuale, ricca di contrasti ed ispirazioni che si può respirare e osservare solo per le strade…non è stato difficile scivolare nel mondo anarchico, colorato da livelli sovrapposti e di ispirazione retro di Anna Sui. I suoi vestiti, così la su casa ricordano le Rock Star del Aquarius Age e la Belle Époque. Cosa le piace?!? Non è un mistero!
– Le strisce bianche – the Rolling Stones – I film di Visconti and Fellini (e da Italina non posso che esserne onorata)- Gary Cooper – New York City – Louis Garrel…se siete curiosi controllate l’intera lista qui http://www.annasui.com/en/anna-sui-biography.html
“There’s always a very sweet feminine, girly aspect…a touch of nostalgia. There’s also the aspect of trendiness; the hipness I try to create by always adding a rock-and-roll coolness. There’s always that ambiguity…The Good girl/Bad Girl thing”- Anna Sui
“C’é sempre un lato di me molto femminile e girly….un tocco di nostalgia. C’è anche l’aspetto della tendenza; l’essere trendy che cerco di creare lo faccio sempre aggiungendo un tocco di rock and roll. C’è sempre un’ambiguità…La Brava ragazza/la Cattiva ragazza” – Anna Sui
