Complex ethnic-influenced prints and curly-haired models were the signature of Shanghai Tang’s new Khotan Silk Road collection. The backdrop for the show was a desolate landscape from deep within the interior of China.

The fashion show drew a standing-room only crowd at Cuisine Cuisine in the IFC Mall on Wednesday evening. Bench seating provided the large turnout of VIP guests with a clear view of the runway as the models marched along to the beat.
