Vivienne Tam presented her Spring/Summer 2018 collection at Gallery I at Skylight Clarkson Sq

 

 

Downtown shares Vivienne Tam’s Spring/Summer 2018 collection was inspired by the action-adventure film, Monster Hunt and its sequel, Monster Hunt 2, produced by Bill Kong and directed by Raman Hui. The collection reflects the mountains and river landscapes depicted in the film and features its main character, Wuba. The film’s lush imagery finds expression in prints and colors reflecting nature – blues, greens, sands and other earth tones with touches of aurora corals, misty mauves and dusky pinks – rendered in soft denim, cotton twill, silk voile, silk chiffon, lace, and fine mesh.

Signature mesh overlays and hand-crafted embroideries depict Wuba and other mystical creatures such as the double headed crane and fabled nine tailed fox in a magical dreamland where imagination makes all possible.

Silhouettes are airy, relaxed and comfortable but are given shape by sash belts at the waist and sleeves and artful gathers. East meets West and Yin meets Yang – with a nod to the masculine in boxy, oversized coats and dusters with a Daoist influence to feminine, ruffled dresses with asymmetric hems and ruched blouses with a romantic flair.

The collection speaks to a playful journey of the mind, from fantasy to modern, urban chic. Vivienne Tam caused an exciting stir at the finale, when Wuba walked the runway with Vivienne Tam, preparing him to step onto the international stage as Monster Hunt 2 will be simultaneously released worldwide by Sony Pictures in major Asian territories and Lionsgate in North America and the United Kingdom.
