New York Fashion Week 2022: Homolog Paris puts on a show

One more season where Homolog captivates us with beautiful pieces, a perfect mix of world culture.

Charm, lightness and fluidity punctuate this collection.

We find there the three-dimensional art of Chinese embroidery, an ancestral know-how that is transmitted from generation to generation in China.

Not to mention the presence of batik (Chinese hand-embroidered fabrics that have been widespread in China for almost a thousand years) and fabrics from different parts of the world.

A proof of love and openness to the world that Emily Cheong brings once again, all in beauty and serenity.

Happiness by Homolog Paris: Focus on the spring/summer 2023 collection

The art of embroidery has been transmitted since the Tang dynasty in China, at present only a few villages in China still have craftsmen who master this art.

Embroidery is also one of the "three unique arts" of Ta Er Temple on the Qinghai Plateau in China.

Emily's family has done a lot of charity work in northern China over the past ten years, supporting education, medicine, and environmental protection...making a point of honor to protect and conserve the intangible cultural heritage.

In order to perpetuate this art, Emily's family has been supporting artisans for decades.

Embroidery techniques have also served Tantric Buddhism throughout history.

Silk satin is crafted in the traditional way into the desired shape, then wool or cotton is added to give it more volume.

The addition of these materials makes it possible to obtain relief.

This time, designer Emily Cheong applies the same technique to the design of her pieces, and the effect is mesmerizing.

In this show, Emily also incorporated Malaysian batik fabric.

"Batik" is purely handmade.

Its design is complex, colorful and intergenerational.

Batik colors are known to be blessed and legitimate with God.

During the parade, we can also see Kain Tenun Pahang, a woven fabric from Pahang in Malaysia, which bears the royal seal.

The knitting is handmade and extremely tedious.

Emily said, "We're so honored to showcase Laia's artistic treasures during New York Fashion Week. This time we're showcasing Pahang woven fabrics, and it's a treasured gift." The fusion of so many cultures during the show touched the audience.

Homolog fabrics are once again natural eco-friendly fabrics, there are 100% silk, 100% mulberry silk, mainly dyed by plants, such as loquat leaves, eucalyptus leaves, etc

Placed under the theme of "warmth" in the design of the patterns.

Colorful corals, wandering seaweed, colorful jungles and cheerful animals hope to awaken the beautiful world in people's hearts.

It is everyone's responsibility to take care of the earth, so that our planet can regain its vitality.

Emily also said fondly that the craft itself carries the light of an artisan, with warmth and love.

There is an ancient Chinese poem that goes like this: “the clothes of a wandering child in the hands of a loving mother”.

There is no doubt that clothes sewn by mother's own hands are more representative of the love of loved ones.

Emily thinks sewing and embroidery lessons are as important as chess, calligraphy, painting and poetry.

We must pay attention to it to develop wisdom, and cultivate aesthetics.

Family love and inheritance are also lessons that modern human beings should learn.

Protecting the environment at all costs is the main objective of the Homolog house set by Emily Cheong

The main objective of Homolog today is to become more involved in the protection of the environment.

And that Emily made a point of underlining it from the beginning of the “show”.

The first models who paraded wore vintage pieces from great fashion designers, a way for the designer to pay tribute to her predecessors in all humility and also to promote the know-how of beauty and not over-production.

These pieces belonged to her grandmother, a way also to highlight timeless pieces, some dating back more than 30 years, Emily describes them as works of art, real treasures in her eyes.

A nice gesture hailed by a moved public.

Homolog, is a high-end house, which intends to provide unlimited services to restricted groups.

Including haute couture modifying old clothes so that they can still wear their original beauty after many years, so that the customer's beauty is like the sun that shines forever.

Emily finally declares “I hope that people will carefully choose each garment they buy, and cherish them with sincere love like a good friend, just like the rose irrigated by the little prince”.
