Springtime Dream, Spring 2021
Springtime Dream for Spring 2021 encapsulates the lightness and wonder of spring. This collection pulls direct inspiration from the works of Vietnamese artist, Ann Phong. Now residing in Los Angeles, CA, Phong’s mixed-media artwork combines her love of painting with her passion for sustainability.
This collection is a love letter to the season, as well as to the Vietnamese community. My own desire is to uplift other Asian and Asian-American artists, and Phong’s story of escaping a communist Vietnam for a better life in America truly resonated with my own family’s history.
Springtime Dream interweaves the delicate, swirling brushstrokes of Phong’s artwork, with the functional, architectural forms found in contemporary women’s fashion.
