An Intimate Conversation with ANNA SUI and Andrew Bolton • • THE NEW SCHOOL | http://www.newschool.edu • • In a presentation brimming with vibrant reminiscence and a love of craft, top designer and Parson's alumna, Anna Sui, and Curator of the Costume Institute at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, Andrew Bolton, took to the stage of Parson's Fashion Auditorium to discuss Bolton's recently authored book entitled Anna Sui, a look into twenty-five years of the designer's successful career. Moderating the discussion was Parson's School of Fashion Dean, Simon Collins, who probed both speakers with questions concerning everything from the designer's experiences to perceptions on social media and globalization. • • Parsons The New School for Design | http://www.newschool.edu/parsons • • Bolton, who describes Ms. Sui as a good storyteller, noted that Anna's creativity and fashion sense not only stems from her strong American cultural influences but also from her ability to pragmatically translate these influences into fashion. I'm not as crazy as I thought, enthused the designer when referring to her design ethic. Throughout the discussion Ms. Sui expressed her perspective about the dynamic and unending process of fashion—noting that it is just as much about developing a craft as it is about understanding what people want and making your products relatable. • • Parsons School of Fashion | http://www.newschool.edu/parsons/fash... • Parsons 560 Fashion Blog | http://fashion.parsons.edu • • Tuesday, November 2nd, 1:00-2:00 • 560 Seventh Ave., 2nd Floor • Fashion Auditorium
