Susan Fang X Slumber Party
A capstone collection made in collaboration with Catey Spraggins, Eireann Norton, Sahara Hayes, and Samantha Neno.
A young designer sleepwear collection inspired by the enchantment of fairytales, Slumber Party X Susan Fang blurs the line between dreams and reality, inviting us to step into a world where fantasy becomes wearable. This collection captures the magic of bedtime reveries, reimagining sleepwear as more than just comfort—it's a portal to our most whimsical aspirations.
At the heart of the collection is a bold and vibrant color story, infused with playful hues that evoke the joy of childhood wonder. Delicate pastels meet rich, bright tones, creating a dreamy palette reminiscent of storybook landscapes.
Bringing this vision to life required a fusion of innovative and traditional craftsmanship. Through laser cutting, quilting, and meticulous hand-sewing techniques, each piece is a labor of love—crafted to embody the ethereal beauty of dreams made tangible. What once existed only in our imagination is now a reality, woven into every intricate detail of Slumber Party.
My first piece is Beauty Sleep, an elegant, quilted dressing robe, inspired by dressing gowns throughout history.
The face is a cream taffeta with woven silver embellishments. It is quilted with a metallic thread in a motif that evokes the gowns regal inspiration. The inside is a bamboo batting layer and a pink cotton lining. The edges are finished with a sage binding and a blue velvet trim along the skirt and bodice. The silhouette is formed with princess lines and features a pleated portion at the center back of the skirt. The sleeves can be attached and detached with ties at the top of the shoulder. With a gold clasp closure at the center front neck and a waist tie, this robe is both comfortable and tailored to the wearer. Beauty Sleep is a robe made for those who wake up from dreams of fairytales and wish to go back to sleep.

My second piece, Sunrise Lace, is a short, empire waist nightgown that is inspired by the first signs of dawn.
Made with a stunning iridescent fabric, this gown catches light with every graceful movement. The colors shift between golden and fiery amber, bringing the fabric to life. The design focus of the nightgown is the pleated skirt and a lace underlining. The pleats themselves help the fabric transform, with each crease emphasizing the iridescent threads throughout the skirt. These shifting colors add a magical nature to the gown. The neckline is adorned with a ruffled lace, enhancing the gown’s beauty and reflecting its feminine nature. Using bows at the shoulders and an elastic back, the gown is not only stylish, but it is comfortable and adjustable for the wearer. Sunrise Lace is the perfect combination of timeless style and contemporary flair, creating a twist on classic sleepwear. There is a fairytale elegance to the gown that makes it perfect for anyone wanting to make their dreams come true.
