| Day two of FashioNXT was a powerful night as four fashion designers and six emerging designers presented their innovative SS14 collections. Michael Costello proved to be a crowd favorite as he sent out a number of provacative evening gowns and super mini dresses down the runway. Nevertheless, it’s been a while since we’ve seen a male designer make a woman’s cleavage and derriere look so delicious. YANE MODE’s Work Party Line was another success, as it could be described as elegant daytime wear. Her clothes could easily transition from a day at the office to walking into a five star restaurant or the Four Seasons. She gave the audience sexy metallic minis and classic sequin skirts. Portland fashion designer Amy Sim walked away from the Up/NXT competition as best emerging designer, and after seeing her very sweet, feminine and wearable collection of dresses, the choice seemed perfect. Another favorite from the emerging designers was Bobby Bonaparte from LiFT label. His was without a doubt, uberly innovative, conceptual, and looked like his designs should grace the covers of style magazines such as Dazed and Confused. – From the Press Release |
