Vancouver Fashion Week 2011 Fall/Winter EVA CHEN LIBERTÉ! LEATHER Collection

Internationally-known fashion designer Eva Chen has established herself as one of the premier Vancouver designers for one-of-a-kind haute couture. Every time Eva announces a new collection, many fashion-watchers eagerly await. Her latest Liberté (French: Liberty) Leather Collection offers a unique cutting and style that once again reflected a distinctiveness which Eva Chen Couture is famous for – edgy, fashionable and yet very comfortable to be in it. Just like many of the same qualities that a high-end auto often strives for. It is no surprise that Eva Chen Couture is presented by Brian Jessel Autohaus.

Liberté! Set yourself free in Eva Chen’s newest collection of exquisitely tailored leatherwear that combines the best craftsmanship of Europe, Asia and North America.
