The name "Anna Sui" sings a familiar tune not only in the fashion industry, but also in pop culture. While Sui was educated at Parsons School of Design in New York, her background in garments and clothing expands far back into her childhood, and she drew inspiration from the streets of New York to create her own line, along now-fashion heavyweight names like Marc Jacobs and Todd Oldham. With early designs worn by industry icons like Madonna, Naomi Campbell, Christy Turlington and Linda Evangelista, Sui would soon find herself one of the most highly-lauded designers in history, known for her innovative spirit and contemporary taste.
