There can be
no doubt about the serious fashion talent emerging from Asia – after all I
manage to run a blog focusing only on labels from this side of the world.
But rarely
have I seen a designer who has perfected everything about their craft and can
be compared to some of the polished gems you see in places like London or
Paris.
Although the
talent is there, a lot of these young designers seemed to lack the one thing
which I consider very important in garments: quality.
However, one
designer whom I had the pleasure to meet recently has climbed right onto the
top of my must buy list of Asian designers. Ladies and gentlemen, meet China's
very own Helen Lee.
From her
choice of top-notch fabrics to the original prints, immaculate cutting and
finishing and superb details – Helen had me at hello.
