A personal editorial featuring Australian Label Anna Quan, shot by Jane Lee
Wearing: Ivory Brigitte Fluffy Backless Knit & Tailor Flare Pant by Anna Quan
It’s always tempting to talk about ‘style’ in terms of trends, but there is a simple and too easily forgotten truth that ‘style’ (not being a word synonymous with ‘fashion’) is about you, and not them. While the magazines and blogs (and indeed, yours truly) are here to help, it is via that necessarily personal curriculum of sartorial translation that your personal style – your signature style – is born.
That this defining ethos permeates the array of Sydney label Anna Quan is something communicated at a glance at its AW15 collection. Aptly titled ‘Style Icons’, this collection is inspired by inspirational women of the past and present, and their styles, and defined by designer Anna Hoang’s choice of luxe wool and silk fabrics and clean and modern tailoring. It retells from another vantage point the Anna Quan narrative, that design must not only lead trends, but transcend them.
This elusive quality manifests in the immediate certainty one feels in exactly how, when and where every piece of this collection could be worn, despite the knowledge that neither a flared wool trouser, or backless roll-neck knit could be designated as ‘basics’. Nor were they ever intended to be – these are simply incredible clothes which are designed to be worn.

wow ! first of all this editorial is your best so far in my own opinion. the lightings and blue hues match Anna Quan ‘s concept perfectly. I love the idea of the brand that you can wear these pieces anywhere and anytime because they are so truly presenting a “style” not a “street fashion” or “cutout trend” etc.
