Mars Attack. Jeremy Scott SS14

September 12, 2013September 12, 2013 | Design & Culture by Ed

Definitely, this is the season of light colours, virgin dresses and flowless skirt. But as always, the enfant terrible of fashion break the rules. And it is all about Mr. Jeremy Scott. Well, I expected the collection will be really up to the Jeremy world, full of prints, sexiness and colours. But… I also expected that Scott will shock a bit. But he didn’t. The collection “Teenagers from Mars” sounds crazy and I felt like it will be a really god collection. However it was very classical converting to Jeremy’s style- in other words, the colour and the print in the key. And the funny quotes that appear already like fifth time in his collections and start to be predictable. Bikini’s, mini skirts and cropped tops exposed most parts of body, so Jeremy Scott definitely invites his models to wear this summer than normal women. Fashion from perspective of Scott meant to be fun, but it starts to be SO MONOTONE. Only the guest list is changing- this time we saw Nicki Minaj in the front row. Yay?

Mash Up. Derek Lam SS14

September 9, 2013 | Design & Culture by Ed

The SS14 collection of Mr. Derek Lam in the Big Apple was many things at time- gingham prints that reminded picnic towels; Parisian chic in the middle of New York; African embroidery and forms in a much more minimalistic way. I don’t know what was the connection of all these styles, but I pretty much liked this collection, and mostly the creme coloured dress with a attached scarf and shoulders cuts… And I found many similarities to Celine’s earlier collection, like the buckle belts, shouldered jackets and the modern dresses. Oh, and the Gingham prints on turbans and dresses are also nothing new (yes, Prada?) but it looked still cool. Happy to see Derek back in full action (last seasons were really boooring…)!

Easy-To-Go. Rag & Bone SS14

September 7, 2013 | Design & Culture by Ed

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!

Acne Studios Bento Box

This funny piece from AW13 Acne Studios collection is not a kind of a modern house decoration. And it’s not a Japanese snack box. It is a clutch! But what kind of a clutch- it looks like made from marble, has a cool emoji sign or Acne’s Stockholm store address and has a mirrored inside interior! You shall fit there everything and anthing, and it’s a “living” piece of modernism in conceptual fashion! Love it!
