			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Urban Samurai has been submitted to the Gen Art&#8217;s &#8220;Plastics Make it Possible&#8221; competition. </p>
<p>Please <a href="http://discover.genart.org/media/view/1339/urban-samurai">VOTE for it</a>!</p>
<p>&#8220;Urban Samurai&#8221; by Nika Tang is a modern collection incorporating the colors and balance of the Japanese samurai and elements that gives a masculine interpretation of feminine pieces. The urban samurai is strong, sophisticated and elegant. Here are two concept pieces that will spring off a more wearable and versatile womenswear collection for Fall 2010, taking on the clean mix of Japanese inspired wool prints, soft, delicate mohair fabric and contours and lines of a modern warrior look. </p>
