Spring has always been a time of renewal. A period of rebirth, that begins with the thawing of frost and the sprouting of flora and birth of fauna. Blanc De Chine took this ideal a step further and created a collection inspired by creation itself. With centuries old Chinese mythology in mind Blanc De Chine presented a collection of ethereal pieces. Inspired by the tale of Chinese god of creation Pangu, and the origin of the universe, Blanc celebrates the infinite possibilities of renewal and birth. The collection featured egg like silhouettes and innovative takes on menswear. Featuring the smooth sounds of a live harpist, guests watched the show at the label’s 5th avenue flagship store.
One of our favorite pieces was this white spring sweater with mandarin collar and rounded sleeve detail. The shape and color was a nod to the “cosmic egg” which gave birth to the universe according to Chinese mythology.
The detail on this menswear piece is a prime example of what is needed in every man’s wardrobe. The grey inserts along the bodice give the jacket share and definition.
We also loved the back detail of this white cocktail dress. A lovely piece created for glamorous summer gatherings and events.
A stunning presentation of chic fashionable pieces. As always this brand holds true to its original ideals creating a line inspired by and paying unyielding homage to Chinese culture and tradition. Blanc channels creativity itself creating a dream for Spring and Summer that would make “Pangu” proud.
