The article discusses the career of American designer Anna Sui. Sui started her career as a designer for sportswear companies, before debuting her own line of women's clothing in the 1990s. She has since released a line of fragrances, as well as shoes and accessories.
Devoted to dressing her dolls for her own personal version of the
Academy Awards as a child, American designer Anna Sui knew from a young
age what course she wanted her life to take. She moved to New York
after high school to attend Parsons School of Design and found work
with a variety of sportswear companies upon her graduation. Sui's big
break came in 1980 when the six pieces she presented at the Boutique
Show was immediately ordered by Macy's with one later being featured in
a New York Times advertisement. That same year Sui launched her own
business which she ran out of her apartment for the next decade.
The 1990s were a time of growth for Sui. She premiered her first runway
show in 1991 and moved her business and showroom to it's currently
location in the Garment District. Her first boutique was opened the
next year and she won the CFDA Perry Ellis Award for New Fashion talent
in 1993. The first Anna Sui boutiques in Asia opened in 1997 which was
also the year she premiered her first collection of shoes.
In 1999 Sui launched her fragrance line in conjunction with Wella AG of
Germany. Her first women's perfume entitled Anna Sui, is a whimsical
scent perfect for daytime wear. Many other fragrances followed with the
most notable being the fresh smelling Live Your Dream, the exotic Night
of Fancy, the romantic Sui Love, the fun Rock Me! series and the
glamorous Dolly Girl series.
