On Our Radar: Self-Portrait
"I like to deconstruct classic shapes and develop these into new, more playful and mischievous designs," Chong explained, noting that he is often inspired by the mix of visual cues he experiences outside the fashion realm (innovative industrial design and cinema, for example). The Spring '14 outing boasts unexpected uses of sequins, mesh, and lace; a smart faux leather; and silhouettes that are both relaxed and hyperfeminine. And each garment, whether it's a python-textured crepe skirt, a louche pair of trousers, or one of the designer's intricate, geometric, multi-material dresses, receives the same amount of attention and care. "Most labels in our price point are based on rather minimal designs," Chong said. Self-Portrait, however, is anything but.
