Anna Sui’s collection for Spring 2009 is a flash of Egyptian hippie chic. Ancient symbols of Egypt such as ankhs, scarabs and udjat, the eye of Horus, were prevalent on jewelry, handbags and footwear.
The collection is bright and optimistic. Fresh-looking smiling models look like they are enjoying themselves and the clothes and accessories of Anna Sui.
Colors of aqua, coral, white and gold mirror the Mediterranean, while tassels and leather sandals create a hippie, bohemian vibe.
