Fashion: Fun, flirty dresses on the ramp

Presenting Sougat Paul's 'Farang Ding Dong' line from his label 'Soup'.
 
A criss-crossing embroidery style inspired by frames, padaung neck rings and buttons characterised designer Sougat Paul's latest offerings from 'Soup'. The name of the collection, 'Farang Ding Dong', translates as 'crazy foreigner' in Thai -- take a look.

First on the ramp is this one-sided emerald dress, with crushed panels overlapping in a plaited manner.
