Zang Toi’s spring collection was a homage to Yves Saint Laurent.

Zang Toi’s Roman holiday-themed collection had a mostly gray scale palette with hints of pink, orange and Valentino red.

Italy’s Lake Garda’s vibrant colors inspired the designer’s collection focused on a sober elegance peppered with flamboyant touches.

Zang Toi’s fall collection of classic ladylike clothes gave his fans exactly what they want.

The designer, inspired by France, channeled the sensuality of cascading wisteria and variations on the classic trenchcoat.

Inspired by après-ski in the French Alps, the designer revealed a dimension beyond his traditional comfort zone.

Zang Toi's runway highlights included crisp white cotton organdy blouses and neat A-line dresses with vibrant granny-square crochet patches.

For fall the designer sent out an elegantly chic collection inspired by the beauty of Venice.

Zang Toi’s celebrated his 25th year in business with a collection called “A Privileged Life: The American Dream.”

The designer got off to a strong start with a few crisply tailored haberdashery looks.

WWD went behind the scenes at the spring show.

Toi’s evening looks offered the glamour he does best, as in a black silk gazar tunic and trousers embellished with silver sequins.

Hairstyles featured soft, frizzy curls in massive, asymmetric shapes, piled onto the tops of the models’ heads.

The designer upped the drama with opulent evening gowns in mostly emerald green and black combinations.

The over-the-top pink floral gowns and odes to western wear verged on the costumey.
