Trend report: Color clash at London Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2012

Matthew Williamson Spring 2012 runway London Fashion Week Spring/Summer 2012 ready-to-wear shows have officially kicked off this week and among the many designers showing, one thing seems to be the common trend on the runway – color, and lots of it.

Haute off the Runway: Hervé Léger by Max Azria Spring 2012 runway (#NYFW #MBFW)

Yesterday I attended the Hervé Léger by Max Azria Spring 2012 runway show. Known for its line of iconic bandage dresses, naturally the front row was packed to the brim with celebrities, (including singers & actresses Taraji P. Henson, Ashlee Simpson, Jessica Szohr and Michael Michele, plus models Selita Ebanks and Jessica White), who wear them. Those who say the bandage dress moment is over...

Interview with Camilla Skovgaard

What does it take for a designer to move beyond convention, and more importantly, to get everyone else to follow them? Convention is a tricky word, especially when it comes to shoes, for in shoes a great deal of the design potential is lost because…people have to walk in them. I learned during my interview with white-hot rising shoe design star Camilla Skovgaard that accepting that a great portion... 

Christian Siriano – Fall 2009 Fashion Week

Typically reality show winners suffer the curse of the sudden death of their careers once the show ends. But Christian Siriano seems to have shaken and broken the curse and his meteoric rise in the fashion industry has been something worth watching. Siriano won last year’s Project Runway and since has reached celeb status, partly due to his fierceness, but mainly due to his incredible talent... 

ADAM Adam Lippes – Fall 2009 Fashion Week

While other designers’ drab and dismal collections mirrored the state of the economy right now, ADAM by Adam Lippes went against the grain and shot bursts of color right up the runway. Though the pictures don’t show it, ADAM’s collection was an ‘ode to Japanese iconography’ and chock full of colorfully vivid pieces. But ADAM didn’t solely rely on color to show off his design chops. A basic... 

Monarchy Collection – Fall 2009 Fashion Week

From Russia with love seemed to be the common thread connecting most designers at the Mercedes Benz Fall 2009 collections. While Monarchy’s denim-based line seemed to have touches of Russian inspiration, the brand actually saddled up to a ‘Scottish equestrian’ theme. Monarchy presented a mix of rugged eastern European-influenced biker-chic with modern bohemian looks under the direction... 

Jordi Scott Collection: “Infamous Revolution” Spring/Summer ’09

Whenever there has been an aesthetic revolt against existing culture, fashion has always been out front. This does not happen because of any grand plans, it’s simply born out of a burning desire to be different mixed with anger and a rejection of what’s in. That fierce spirit was stamped all over Jordi Scott’s Spring/Summer ’09 collection. The collection was equal parts N.Y... 

Haute Off the Runway: Ports 1961 Spring 2009

Ports 1961 is known for its knits but the Spring 2009 collection took a minor turn from the usual. The brand chose liquid fabrics and metallics for its collection. An iridescent orange dress with a hint of a pink slip stole the show. Overall, dress shapes were a throwback to the mod era featuring minidresses with shapely shoulders and geometric cutouts. Most styles within the collection were tribal-inspired... 

Haute Off the Runway: Tracey Reese Spring 2009

  Tracey Reese’s love of all thigs feminine was on full display in her Spring 2009 collection. The designer stuck to a palette of largely neutral colors with splashes of peach.

Reese’s collection... 

Haute Off the Runway: Gottex Spring 2009

Gottex’s nautical-inspired Spring 2009 show was its usual display of art meets fashion. Swimsuits were plafully designed with eye-popping colors and artful shapes.

Other simple suits became high-fashion with geometric ...
