Femininity and felinity take center stage at Yuhan Wang LFW FW 22/23 – text by Leticia Dare

 

Dear Shaded Viewers,

 

Femininity and felinity took center stage at Yuhan Wang this season. Titled ‘Venus in Furs’ – all locally sourced faux fur on the runway to be clear – the collection worked through intricate knitwear, lace and laser cut faux leather to produce a softness that also promoted female empowerment. Yuhan used pussy symbolism both literal and inspired by on the runway through hand painted watercolour cat motifs printed on satin and knitwear to a full catlike faux fur look with live animal in hand. “Women are like cats,” says Yuhan. “Sometimes we can be very cute but sometimes we can bite.” Perfectly said!

 

Later,

Leticia
