When thinking about fashion a lot of things come to mind. It’s all about creativity, imagination, uniqueness, and style that drives individuality and provides a passion for a love called fashion.
It’s a mind thing. And patterns and paper is a designer’s breeding ground for success…
Each designer begins with the same slate, the same bodice front... but how do they manipulate it so that their own ideas are able to be birthed. Emerging from the greatness of everlasting freedom, the designers' in this year's New York Fashion Week gave the audience a new sense of looking at clothing and a new respect for the tangible.
Colors and flowy patterns to edgy plaids with stripes all strategically placed. Even though at times it appeared that the designers (in the most respectful tone) threw them together. Yet nothing mattered because somehow they all were the Picasso's of fashion.
But which designer is the best? What is my opinion? What do I think about the New York Fashion Week?
This year’s fashion week in New York to me brought forth a lot of new things while keeping in touch with older clothing trends and themes.It seemed like the designers for Marc Jacobs and especially Rodarte explored with futuristic elements by intertwining older eras and connecting future themes… yet and still it supportive of the present.
Both Marc Jacobs and Rodarte had a great sense of cohesiveness in their show and lines, (which can be found at http://video.style.com/). Marc Jacobs and his notable hats made him unique and the innovative use of wires for the shoes each girl wore for the Rodarte line completed each look in an astonishing way.
Honestly I like the designs and pieces (though there were only a few that I might realistically wear) gave me a need to appreciate them.
I think shiny fabrics were definitely in this year as well. Almost every designer seemed to allow some type of material whether silk, rayon or acetate, to escape on to the runway and attach itself to a garment of choice.
Then there was another element that seemed to be lurking in the shadows: bare skin! I noticed that a lot of collections presented gave the limbs freedom to do as they pleased and seemed to relax the outfits a lot. I am guessing it is to suggest that spring 2009 will be one of freedom of motion... and freedom of motion allows the body to feel free...
It was said by reporters of http://www.style.com/ that designers such as Francisco Costa (Calvin Klein) came up with the term and style entitled "soft geometry" and it is absolutely amazing how he was able to work the fabric to bend, fold and give the illusions of geometric shapes and figures. This could suggest that something about the upcoming spring: something "new" is going to "shape" our "future".
The future is clearly fashion: and fashion definitely lasts LONGER than a week...
