"Everything is really romantic and dreamy this season," Anna Sui said at her showroom. "It s much sweeter than Fall." Or, to put it in terms of Sui s beloved musical references, maybe we could say Resort is more Beatles than Stones. The designer turned out long ruffled peasant dresses, lace-trimmed bed jackets, and velvet burn-out tea dresses with flutter sleeves in a palette of dusty pinks, pale blues, and sea foam greens. Prints were mostly a variation on florals—there were roses, nosegays, and posies—but a cheeky cherry print (paired with a matching oversize brooch) stood out. It had a fanciful element that suits Sui and the season.
