Making his debut at the closing event of Milan Fashion Week was Mercedes-Benz China Young Fashion Award winner Wang Peiyi, whose work has been seen on the likes of Gong Li, Fan Bingbing and Zhang Ziyi. Showing a collection inspired by the northern lights -- "lightened by some sparkle...embellished with white, purple and blue Swarovski crystals and beaded fringe," according to WWD -- Wang's show mostly included evening pieces speckled with casual wear like a leather bomber jacked and collarless wool blazer.
A graduate of China's Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA), Wang started his own label in 2005, steadily building his reputation before breaking out last year at Mercedes-Benz China Fashion Week.
