Their bold and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">dazzling colors, bling-bling sequins, luxurious wild prints, sexy tulle, dynamic tassels and other elements blended together to present a grand and exciting disco carnival night. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Halpern\u2019s bold use of vintage elements won Topshop over, and the British high street fashion brand announced their collaboration on August 20.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Michael Halpern is a New York designer who graduated from the Parsons School of Design in the United States. His mother often told him stories about dancing in studio 54 and St. Regis, so the sparkling disco style of the 70s inspired Halpern&#8217;s design. One can always see a lot of &#8220;flashing&#8221; sequins, tassels and other elements related to the 70s. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Michael Halpern previously made an impression at the Centre Saint Martins MA show in 2016. He was applauded by Sarah Mower, chief fashion commentator for the US version of VOGUE magazine and emerging talent ambassador of the British Fashion Council. Halpern\u2019s celebrity fans include Amal Clooney, Lupita Nyong\u2019o, Diane Kruger, Giovanna Battaglia Engelbert and Marion Cotillard. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The 28-piece series from Topshop and Halpern launched on November 7, including neon velvet items, two prints, color decorations and rainbow-colored mini-dresses which cost only \u00a340. During the holidays and the loads of Christmas parties, we couldn\u2019t find a designer more appropriate to bring fun to our winter fashion.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Check out the collaboration on Topshop\u2019s website here: <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.topshop.com.\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">www.topshop.com<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Feature image: Imagine China<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Words: SiJie Ren | Subbing: Shruti Tangirala<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Topshop x Halpern Series Takes Off The Topshop x Halpern series incorporates autumn and winter trends, including neon velvet items, two prints, color decorations and rainbow-colored mini-dresses.
