A life journey around the world, from Paris to Milan, from London to Shanghai.

« Style, Art, Life » is the second mandarin art book collection, by Nancy Zhang – chinese artist now living in Berlin – yet a review and sentiment of her art  style and personal aesthetics in the past 6 years.

«Style is a surface, is the concentration and reflection of experiences, yet a production of your mind. » – she explains – « It has been changing by your thinking, revealing your memories from the past sometimes. It is a mirror beside oneself, a shadow below oneself. »

The artbook, launched first in Milan and then last October at 10 Corso Como Shanghai with a special exhibition, combines western and oriental style with Zhang’s personal aesthetics.

Thus the mandarin artist creates a sentimental review in which each fashion photography matches a corresponding illustration with the addition of author’s personal essays. She talks about fashion, expressing through art the love for last generation of designers, for their creativity and passion.

Between the selected brands, thanks to the cooperation with Fashtags that connect the artist with the fashion talents, Vivetta, Miryaki and An Italian Theory become illustrations in the book and has the opportunity to exhibit their outfits in Shanghai.

Driven by passionate luxury that stimulates the senses and enhances the perception of the surrounding world, Miryaki a.k.a. Mia Vilardo and Riccardo Polidoro, embodies a young and fresh kind of couture. Perfect wearability, high quality materials and sophisticated creativity are key.

This accessory-inspired brand injects its clothes with harmonious contrasts and mixed visual inspirations of fluid shapes and rich details. Through tailoring and sharpness, Miryaki expresses its most authentic character and proudly states an image of essential elegance. Its aura of mellow masculinity highlights the purest concept of femininity, shifting the perception of a seemingly frail woman to one that gives rise to a powerful, refined silhouette of unexpected strength. This process is best-described by the designers as: The irrationality of precision.

Spring/Summer 2015 collection preview.

The Miryaki SS/15 collection concept speaks the language of beaches with a 1950s Italian flavor, in a cocktail of carefreeness and colors. Flirtatious, cheeky women seduce in a game of geometric juxtapositions, soft shapes and voluminous folds that collide with angular flaps and linear details.

Micro graphic patterns meet micro check and maxi stripes. An iconic piece, the dress can be long or short and comes in a variety of styles from swingy and cute to light with contrasting tints. Pinnies and sundresses evolve into cocktail and daytime dresses, while silk crepe de chine shirts get matched with large skirt pants in cotton piquet.

Pleated crop tops suggest “corolla” patterns and go hand in hand with straight capri pants, as opposed to full skirts paired with intensely-embroidered neoprene bras. Transparent straws sewn by hand onto satin ribbons, create fringes that follow the cuts of some of clothes. – Black is not allowed. – The color palette is an explosion of liveliness, white, orange, lime, rust and blues from light to dark, in a hymn of colored silk and printed cottons.
