Zang Toi – Fall 2011

New York audiences rarely clap during runway events, let alone “ooh” and “ah,” but those sounds could be heard repeatedly throughout Zang Toi’s Fall 2011 show, starting with the first look down the runway, a floor-length Loro Piana wool cape with fox collar, topping bootleg pants and a cashmere and silk ribbed turtleneck – all in shades of camel. That was one of 33 mostly monotone combinations in nude, camel, charcoal and black, a few sparked with emerald. Toi collared some daywear pieces with mink or fox and embellished some eveningwear with beads and crystals. All – even the three menswear ensembles — emanated glamour and elegance, adjectives which Toi calls his signature look.
