Malan Breton unveils his Spring/Summer 2016 collection for both men and women as part of Style Fashion Week during New York Fashion Week on September 11, 2015. Photos by Norman Ding / Courtesy of Malan Breton via AichG.
The Spring/Summer 2016 collection from Taiwanese fashion designer Malan Breton is inspired by his recent travel to Taiwan’s Sun Moon Lake. Titled “Reflections of Sun Moon Lake”, the collection highlights traditional dying techniques, embroideries, and silks that celebrates east-meet-west elegance in both womenswear and menswear.
Partnering with Taiwan Tourism Bureau, Malan Breton also teams up with cancer research charity Sound Affects. His finale gown was auctioned off during the NYFW Wrap Party, raising more than $50,000. Now that’s a great fashion for worthy cause!
While the colorful, textured dresses (and a few separates) for the ladies are beautifully styled and worn, I feel the menswear outfits are the standouts. The indigo and white combo makes the traditional Taiwanese dying techniques shine, and the giant red umbrella provides the superb contrast to the whole menswear presentation.

Ah, now I want to embark on another overseas travel again soon. I’d LOVE to get inspired like that…so fashionably inspired. Well done Malan Breton for showcasing this exquisite Spring/Summer 2016 collection!
Thanks for reading; until next time,
