Asian styles update with a feminine flair as trendsetters anticipate a pop-culture shift coinciding with the cinematic release of Memoirs of a Geisha this December. Floral blooms, delicate motifs and kimono-inspired details offer Japanese influence to the ubiquitous Asian design category. Red dominates the style, carrying significance as a good luck color in Asian tradition. Indigenous materials such as bamboo and palm fuse natural content with chic, clean concepts for a fresh take on Eastern traditions.
