Jana Pijak — May 20, 2014 — Pop Culture
Xiao LI's Autumn/Winter 2014 collection paints a bold picture of Chinese fashion. The Chinese-born, London-based designer looked at a marriage of German and Chinese cultures to gain inspiration for her latest line of edgy womenswear.
Xiao Li marries Berlin's minimalist aesthetic with Beijing's imaginative Chinese fashions. The collection lookbook presents fashion lovers with refined Seapunk styles that are worn by a pink-haired model. The catalog challenges the subculture's typically eccentric styling and tones down aquatic hued looks by infusing them with a touch of structure and sophistication.
The designer is known for her technical skills and sculptural silhouettes that have garnered her a prestigious Merit award from Fashion Scout along with the Diesel award from International Talent Support.
