Meet Me After School: Sandy Liang FW21
Designer Sandy Liang mentioned that one of her “forever inspirations is after-school vibes”. The fall-winter 2021 collection stems from that idea down to the fleece jackets, puffer vests, sheer knee-high socks and mary jane flats. These after-school girls would give the Upper East Siders of Constance Billard a run for their trust fund money. Nonetheless, Sandy Liang wanted to design unexpected yet fanciful pieces to be attainable for any type of woman. Okay, maybe not every atypical woman, maybe she owns a cool, downtown art gallery space and is a single mother to an even cooler 17-year old girl who loves to borrow from her mother’s closet. Guess this is where whimsical comes into play, something that the designer opts for with the fall season, with a ‘why not’ attitude.
There are more subtle surprises with faux fur and “your mom’s leather jacket” as I like to refer to it nostalgically, but here’s a few of our favorite looks.
"I'm starting to listen to myself more — which means drowning out expectations.”
