Huishan Zhang Resort 2027 Collection Inspired by Marella Agnelli
Huishan Zhang's Resort 2027 collection draws on the life and style of Marella Agnelli, the 1960s socialite and 'swan.' Zhang's methodical approach involves collecting references from art, architecture, and film, then selecting a muse—this season, Agnelli. The collection emphasizes transformation through layering, featuring cashmere cardigans over dresses or with embellished pencil skirts. Floral brocade, appliqué, and embroidery are scaled up for a three-dimensional effect. Richard Avedon's portraits of Agnelli inspired longline upper-half silhouettes, including a top with a cascading neck tie paired with tailored trousers. Closing dresses in lightweight crepe jersey mark a departure from Zhang's usual angular, full-bodied shapes. The collection debuted as part of the Resort 2027 season.
