Miguel Antoinne Spring 2010

miguel_titleI really like the idea of a man who can breeze into, say, the Plaza hotel with a crisp black blazer, aviators, cropped trousers and a loose tank. This man would look tailored, classic but still modern. And what do we mean when we say modern? Modern as in relevant, a reflection of the times, while still remaining classic. Miguel Antoinne premiered his Spring/Summer 2010 collection at Studio 450, a gorgeous white washed loft, the perfect setting for the show we were about to witness. His inspiration was the sudden beauty one experiences in a thunderstorm, the calm before lightning strikes, the tension and stillness. You can see it in his crisp shirts, you can see how the stormy colors make its way into his pebble washed cotton tanks and woven shirts. Zig-Zag patterns could be found on suits, dark patterns repeating on white linen. The tailoring is sharp and the silhouette is clean, while the shirts seems softer to provide relief. Tailored shorts were high-waisted and dare I say it? Sassy. It’s a wonderful, fresh look. Trousers were smartly cropped (the hem can be manipulated to be shorter or longer) and were worn with shiny patent leather brogues. Tuxedo blazers were reinvented with inset lapels, which were a nice touch. A wonderful, invigorating collection.

Davidelfin Spring 2010

davidDavidelfin’s Spring/Summer 2010 collection featured color palettes of jade, mint green, jewel tones, and navy. His collection was unisex and had an androgynous feel.

Multiple green pieces were shown, and the models wore it from head to toe. Bags, belts, makeup and shoes were green.

Models wore patent leather lace up shoes paired with suits, sparkly navy peep toe stilettos with a dress. Fitted trousers, sheer blouses, shorts, skirts, sweaters, jumpers and dresses were presented.

Detailed stitching could be seen on shirts and jackets. Pieces included fabrics from elastic cotton, acetate weave, hand woven cotton and polyamide.

Sleeveless blazers, a white button down shirt, sleeveless on one side, paired with green fitted pants.

Trousers with a skirt-front or shirts, cardigans who turn out to be a dress, cut out pant suits and shorts over trousers were the highlights of his collection.

Andy & Debb Spring 2010

Andy_Debb_titleAs a Pratt Alum, Andy & Debb Spring 2010 was another collection that did me proud. The pieces played with shapes, textures and had a very 50’s feel. I can see them dressing the cast of MadMen with this line. We saw bubble skirts and chic tailored suits in a palette of burnt orange, copper, gold, and magentas. Kudos, Prattlings.

Lacoste Spring 2010

Lacoste_Title
Classic Lacoste is “simple, sporty and chic” and that is exactly what we got. We were graced with short shorts, flowy skirts, and linen blazers in a bold palette of blues and lots of stripes. For a grand finale, Lacoste sent its full cast of models down the runway in nothing but lemon pop yellow. Looking forward to a bright future, perhaps?
