Victoria Beckham did a really good job with her SS14 collection! It’s very in her style, minimalistic and beautiful. The collection was inspired with modern architecture- easy forms, black & white colours, truss triangle pattern on bags and dresses and many other showed the things that influenced Vicky’s clothes for Summer. But, although the collection is pretty warm (come on, golf sweaters?) and cold at the same time (well, these colours would for sure better match the next winter!), the collection is very good and I like it! The opener of the show was of course the new muse of Beckham, Edie Campbell, the British beauty, that season before was together with Cara Delevigne in every campaign and show!
SS14
Malboro Girl. Altuzarra SS14
Altuzarra woman is a strong business-cowgirl from the famous Malboro cigarettes advertisements. Yes, but didn’t it bored Joseph Altuzarra who repeats the same scheme from last Summer? Last year was like totally the same- cuts in skirts, tribal accents, shiny fabrics and this rodeo feeling. And after his amazing Winter collection I expected something much more sophisticated, interesting. But unfortunately, Altuzarra wanted to be more classic in his way. But is that alright for this young New York based designer? From Indian colonist costumes we move to super futuristic furs and then we comeback to the same prints with other ideology? I am very dissapointed with that collection. Sorry Altuzarra.
Logo. Alexander Wang SS14
The new collection of Alexander Wang was simply cool- certainly, Alex did feel that his label is in the status of the fame of his own logo. The collection was simply overflowing with the Alexander Wang black and white logo. And I did love it! This time Wang really excited me. The collection was all in white and black colours, with lots of transparency and funny PARENTAL ADVISORY sign that we all know from the films… Definetely Alexander Wang was inspired with the street fashion- lots of sweatshirts, shirt-dresses and sneakers were presented on really hot models! Hanne Gaby, Kasia Struss, Georgia May Jagger, Joan Smalls. Jourdan Dunn, Edie Campbell and the guest of the runway who full of grace closed the show- Erin Wasson, really made the event most buzzed about!
Urban Jungle. Tibi SS14
On the third day of New York Fashion Week, I can say, that the designers calmed down after last year’s colour splash and print madness! Tibi SS14 is the best example of that. This New York based label that prices are very affordable didn’t really shock, but it did really remind as all about Summer paradise! The green jumpsuits, kaleidoscopic jungle prints and comfortable sandals were the right shot for next season. There were also these minimalistic leather black jackets, over-large safari trousers and the beloved orange dress- so light and perfect for beach… Summer, comeback, please! 💚🌴💚🌴💚🌴 P.S. I love this season in New York!
Easy-To-Go. Rag & Bone SS14
The Summer collection of the casual label Rag & Bone from New York is one of these that are always best for… life! What I loved in this season at Rag & Bone was the easiness of all the dressesm jacket and tops… The colours were really light- beautiful shades of blue, pink, violet and orange were seen mixed with classical black and white. And the must-have’s from Rag & Bone are definetely the black and white knitwears and these beach dresses- they looked great on the models! And there is also a small beauty note that will be hit this season…. it’s the orange lips! Yes, all the models had their lips in neon orange colour that looked refreshing and really eye-catchy! Let the Easy-to-go style rule the Summer season!
