Jamie Wei Huang is a contemporary womenswear label, founded by Jamie Wei Huang after graduating from Fashion Design Womenswear at Central Saint Martins College in London. Continuing Jamie Wei Huang’s strong belief in seeking self-expression through fabrication and materials Jamie Wei Huang stays true to her signature style of strong elongated silhouettes, constructed with careful juxtaposition of fabrics to cater to the contemporary individuals.
AW 16 collection is named developing from the 40-year era of the Post-war depressive economy, against the societal reaction of the different classes in a lightly satirical way. This journey is shown through the feminine details considered as signatures of that time period -vivacious colour block and stripes, wide trousers, pencil skirts and ruffles, as well as a combination of contrasting materials, from working class fabrics and patterns, to feminine details such as bows.
The curved lines present in jersey and cashmere knitwear challenge the usual brand signature of lose fit and unisex, AW I 6 collection is re-translating the traditional Post-war stereotype of elegance and femininity.
AW I 6 collection continues with Jamie Wei Huang’s unique motif of metal trimming and leathers. Sport luxe fabrications play a key part of the brand signature, when examining the contrast of the post-war era and the society in hindsight, to recreate that period of time with new languages in the Autumn/Winter 2016 collection.
