SebastianRed and Sebastian Sposa | Sebastian Gunawan Brings the Museums of Europe to the Catwalks of Indonesia

Jakarta. For top Indonesian designer Sebastian Gunawan, women are an endless source of inspiration.

"Women can transform into anything, transcending time and place, when they dress up," said the 48-year-old. "It's like magic."

His latest 2015/2016 collection for the "SEBASTIANred" and "SEBASTIANsposa" labels, presented at the Ritz-Carlton Pacific Place, Jakarta,on Oct. 5, was aptly named "A Lady's Portrait."

Named for the 1700s and 1800s paintings of European women in museums across the continent which the designer recently visited with his wife, Cristina Panarese, the inspiration was evident.

"We both saw that women in that era really dressed up, even for daily occasions," said the designer.

"In spite of the lack of facilities and infrastructures at that time, they wore full-blown ballgowns with rich accessories and pointed shoes. In addition to that, they also wore heavy make-up and grand pompadours. They looked very dramatic."

TRIBUNNEWS.COM, JAKARTA – Pemain film Luna Maya mengakui menyukai gaya berpakaian yang biasa saja tak terlalu heboh. Makanya Luna lebih menyukai rancangan desainer asal Indonesia daripada desainer asal Luar Negeri.

"Aku mending Indonesia, bisa custom dan style modelnya gimana. Kalau desainer dari luar agak big size, kesulitan juga sih," kata Luna Maya saat ditemui di Plaza Senayan, Tanah Abang, Jakarta Pusat, Selasa (20/10).

Dia mengaku rancangan desainer asal Indonesia yang dikaguminya adalah Sebastian Gunawan dengan dress classicnya.
