"Designer Mary Katrantzou brought a slice of Andy Warhol’s Factory to China Fashion Week on Sunday night, reprising her fall collection through Mercedes-Benz’s International Designer Exchange Program. The designer restaged her London show, replete with pillow-shaped, silvered balloons, inspired by Warhol’s “clouds” installation. The Asian models strutted down the reflective runway to the upbeat country tunes of Dolly Parton and Lynn Anderson. “[The show] is a great way to introduce the brand in a more cohesive way, exciting way, where you could look at the collection up close and relive that experience. I think it’s important to travel with your show and you rarely can do so,” Katrantzou said after the show."
