Boundless

Invitation cards to designer Zhang Da's latest show resemble the key rings used in the lockers of Chinese public swimming pools in the 1980s and 90s. But the pool party-inspired spring and summer collection is way ahead of its time, if not futuristic. The white one-piece with the Chinese characters nan (male) and nv (female) written in a childlike hand, resembling the signs for changing rooms, got the most attention. The small, checkered mini dress is the piece I would actually want to throw on over my swimsuit.
