Eccentric Bohemian

Anna Sui's esthetic has always been retro bohemian chic with a Bloomsbury era vibe. These garments tell the story of a modern day woman who has an attic filled with the clothing and the memories of her grandmother, a grandmother who was the coolest kid in school.

Sui's line for Fall 2011 is scrumptious and eccentric. Most notable is the amusing bear hat, a hat guaranteed to stop traffic even in New York City. These are untraditional clothes made from traditional fabrics and colored with the colors of fall.

So wear Sui and bring on the funk and fun.
