On Monday, January 24th, 2011, at Jacflash, the unveiling of Lew Kee's Spring'11 collection took place. For a couple hours the store was showcasing the new arrivals of this amazing collection and now you can purchase pieces at Jacflash! The launch was chill and filled with fashionable hopefuls, who came to witness and speak to the designer herself in person about her collection. This is Amanda's second collection and it was debuted this past October at Toronto Fashion Week. Why this collection is so special is, because it was completely different from Fall 10 ( which was all black, studs, leather, spikes), which many people thought would be a continuation. It shows the innovative design of Lew Kee. The colour palette is wonderful and the attention to smaller details is key. The needle applique dress is my favourite, because as you look closer, it is so detailed, it must have taken HOURS. Bravo Amanda Bravo! Watch out her FW collection in February at NYC Fashion Week and in March at Toronto Fashion Week!

Oh yeah, BLUE LIPS ANYONE?
