This season, Chong continues the materialization of his vision with an Autumn/ Winter collection that is made for real-life women who are not afraid of playing dress up. “There’s an evening option, there’s a work option, there’s a fun option,” the designer explained to Vogue US. “Self-Portrait is a democratic brand. It’s very important to fulfill the needs [of women], that is the starting point of every collection.”

The collection includes skirt suits made of exquisite bouclé, chain knits, daring laces and even stonewashed denim. “The bouclé and houndstooth are fabrics that usually remind you of very ladylike, prim silhouettes, and we were looking at how to make them young and fun for our customer,” Chong continues, for Vogue US.
“This season the Self-Portrait girl is ready to start dressing up again to go out. There’s a focus on evening wear, but we want it to be effortless and allow for ease of movement, the comfort is not compromised.”
