Los Angeles based fashion designer Sue Wong has been tapped by Sony to create a ready-to-wear collection inspired by the new movie Eat Pray Love. “Eat Pray Love by Sue Wong” features pieces influenced and inspired by the story’s focus on the beauty and exotic essence of India and Indonesia, specifically, rich colors and textures, exotic flair and intricate embellishments.
“When I read Eat Pray Love, I immediately identified with the story, as many aspects of Elizabeth Gilbert’s journey were synchronous with my own personal odyssey,” said designer Sue Wong. “Because of the immediate connection I felt to the story, as well as its emphasis on the culture, philosophy, and, in particular, alluring mystique of the East, I was able to create a collection that was striking, exotic, and timeless, and organic to the journey in the book and forthcoming film.”
“Eat Pray Love by Sue Wong” launches nationally in August 2010 as a special limited edition collection for fall 2010. The line is available in fine department stores such as Neiman Marcus, Saks Fifth Avenue, Bloomingdale’s, Nordstrom’s, Lord and Taylor and Dillard’s, as well as on www.saks.com, www.bloomingdales.com and www.SueWong.com.
