The designer has built her brand on mixing vibrant prints and influences for a unique look, and this season was no different.

Anna Sui&#39;s Spring 2020 show at New York Fashion Week paid tribute to the Victorian era.&nbsp;The designer has crafted a recognizable aesthetic on colorful eclecticism, changing up the inspiration and look each season with a mix of different prints and fabrics that together paint a modern and unapologetic picture of femininity.&nbsp;This season is no different, embracing an edgy and nostalgic softness that floated down the runway with its effortless movement, texture, and colors that will feel right at home at a springtime garden party.

The runway featured feminine dresses, all using an array of colors and often transparent fabrics, and in a nod to storied Victorian society, many had puffed&nbsp;sleeves. Everything blended together effortlessly and seemed to signal that maybe there&#39;s a lot of potential for fanciful and lighthearted aesthetics to take over in an environment saturated with intense political commentary and ultracool streetwear. Honestly, that&#39;s not that surprising when you think about Cecilie Bahnsen&#39;s influence on street style over in Europe and brands like Batsheva and Susan Alexandra taking over in New York&mdash;the state of the world can be stressful and a dreamy escape often feels necessary. After Sunday was full of a garden party with sunhats and adorable cocktails at Rosie Assoulin and an overall plethora of produce and outdoor shows, Sui&#39;s collection helped to keep a bit of that relaxing energy going as the industry headed into a Monday that was essentially a seventh straight day of work amidst fashion week craziness.

The makeup, by none other than legendary artist-cum-entrepreneur Pat McGrath,&nbsp;was another important point of the presentation, with playful designs and hyper-pigmented eyeshadow&mdash;that last detail bearing significant resemblance to the viral makeup on Euphoria.
