"I like places with sunlight and greenery, and the feeling of a liberated soul, relaxed and filled with energy," said Cong Tri as he explained the ideas behind his latest collection titled "Summer Capsule 2020 - Eternal Journey." He takes inspiration from the journeys of modern women who long for great adventures and seek to liberate their inner selves, Tri said. |
The internationally renowned Vietnamese designer said he takes ideas from his travels around the world, having been to many countries over the last two decades. |
His latest collection features a wide range of outfits including suits, bell-bottomed pants, suits, pencil skirts, puff sleeved tops with outsized sleeves... all presented against the backdrop of a vintage Mustang, symbolizing travel. |
"I want to bring outfits designed for runways into real life. I think the road that every woman takes is her runway, her red carpet. They can shine at every moment." |
The latest collection uses many types of fabric: linen, kate, satin, organza and more. |
Tri emphasizes loose comfort and soft, pastel colors for many outfits in his new collection. Some of the outfits are customized from his Spring/Summer 2020 collection, inspired by dew and introduced at the New York Fashion Week last September. |
Zebra patterns and primary colors are also featured. The colorful zebra patterns shorten to distance with nature and unleash the free and wide sides. |
Tri's outfits are combined with accessories and bags from Salvatore Ferragamo, Stuart Weitzman, Casadei, Miluxe Eyewear and other top brands. |
