Jason Wu’s feminine and energetic 2013 Resort Collection was inspired by insects and art.

Multi-disciplinary artist Mike Libby is the creator of Insect Lab, a series of sculptures from dead insects and the parts of antique wristwatches.

  

  

In his Resort Collection, Wu pays tribute to Libby’s delicate creatures by depicting them in Swarovski crystals, as well as insect-patterned fabrics and bug-shaped handbags.

And handbags

 

The combination of insects and art also indirectly inspires Wu’s vivacious colour scheme and unusual shapes.
