Berlin: Celine

Celine’s Phoebe Philo Resort 2014 collection got us all… Lost. The collection itself looks amazing on the models, but some elements are simply disturbing- the 70’s inspired astronaut belts on trousers and shirt; plastic Birkenstocks that look like, well, plastic pool sandals; heavy, Earth colours that are hard to wear for Spring. Yesterday, seeing it all up close, I am amazed but at the same time shocked, what kind of strange fabrics were used here- polyester, polar, plastic, rubber… In Philo’s mind, the Celine woman for Resort is boho- wears it all loose and over-sized. And pretty not neat. But still, as always in case of Celine… I like it.

Weird Party. Marc Jacobs SS14

Slide1-kopia

“It’s more of a weird frat party, Burning Man, shores-of-Gotham City sort of beach scene. It’s a lovely nightmare, or it was for me anyway.” And this, more interestingly: “I didn’t want the cliché of Spring and Summer, I wanted it to be about girls who have no problem coming to work in a Victorian gown and Birkenstocks” said Marc Jacobs about his SS14 collection that with grace closed the New York Fashion Week. The venue was amazing- a huge, huge place, that reminded of something like a beach apocalypse- beach chairs, towels, sand, trees, cigarettes were lying in chaos everywhere. The models (the set of them was really impressive) were for example Cara Delevigne who flew straight from London through Atlantic to walk the runway for Marc and comeback on London Fashion Week… Sky Ferreira (!!!), Edie Campbell, Lily Mcmenamy, Georgia May Jagger and Hanne Gaby were also here. Coming back to collection, Marc Jacobs broke all the rules of the SS14 but in a good way- when everybody were into pure minimalism and pale clothes, MJ slapped it, with a print, embroidery and colour bomb- in a much darker colour than I expected. The clothes were inpired with Victorian era, widow weeds and some 21st century- birkenstocks again rocked the runway just like funny backpack totes! Definitely, that was one of these “weird” parties I would love to come…
