Talent+Opportunity+Hard Work+Luck=Prabal Gurung

I'm very glad for this Nepali keta.

Prabal's Bio

Wall Street Journal article

Vanity Fair article


Prabal Gurung, a relatively new designer — he spent five years at Bill Blass before he set out on his own last winter — makes sophisticated clothes. He is aware of fit. He can set a proper sleeve. He has good connections with fabric mills, which will sell him small amounts. He makes everything count.

“When I started this collection, I thought, ‘What can I do to get people to buy my clothes? ” said Mr. Gurung, a native of Nepal. That’s a worthwhile question today. Why buy a $3,000 trench-coat dress in khaki double-face silk when you can buy the look for a lot less elsewhere?

Mr. Gurung’s answer is to create clothes that aren’t really about a one-dimensional look. That’s fine for an androgynous-looking label like Wayne.

On Thursday in a stripped-down loft in Chelsea, with a D.J. playing, the designer, Wayne Lee, presented a skinny silhouette of draped jersey T-shirt dresses, leggings split at the knees and gauzy minis that looked tied on the body. At some point the cement grays and whites blurred into the background, the low sky over the Hudson. Did the hard-edged clothes look familiar? A little.

Very refreshing news. Did not expect Nepalese to find fame as a designer. Bravo! Mr Gurung and all the best.
