We just knew that there had to be one more designer up the embellished sleeves of Audi Fashion Festival 2012.

Previously, it was announced that Nicola Formichetti, creative director of French luxury brand Thierry Mugler, and French designer Roland Mouret will be showing their collections here in May when Audi Fashion Festival 2012 takes place.

The latest international name announced today is American designer Zac Posen, who will show for the very first time in Asia.

Known for his glamourous aesthetic, Zac Posen’s creations are well-loved amongst the Hollywood elite for his red carpet gowns and cocktail dresses, which he infuses with a 1940s-inspired tailoring. Celebrity fans include stars such as Natalie Portman, Kate Winslet, Gwyneth Paltrow and Beyonce.  

Zac Posen will show his latest pre-Fall 2012 and Fall/Winter 2012 collection at Audi Fashion Festival on May 19, and will present 30 to 35 looks from both collections.

Audi Fashion Festival 2012 will take place from May 16 to May 20. For more information, visit www.audifashionfestival.com
