The leading days of New York Fashion Week are gone, one of the more commercial fashion weeks where can be showed future trends in the next Fall Winter 2014 on the street. My favorite collections of first days are Alexander Wang, Altuzarra, Dion Lee, Helmut Lang, Delpozo, Prabal Gurung and Derek Lam. Let's take a look...
ALEXANDER WANG
Alexander Wang moved his show from Manhattan to Brooklyn showing a collection inspired by climate extreme conditions. Technologic outwear, laser prints, multi-pocket accessories to carry multiple tech gadgets and a simply perfect shoes. A neon color explosion for a really cold Fall Winter 2014.
ALTUZARRA
Traditional craftmanship, Joshep Altuzarra's hallmark, keep present in the next Fall Winter 2014 collection of his homonymous brand. A collection distilling elegance among so many sportwear fever and that choose to dress up a practical woman without necessity of having to put a pair of sneakers.
DION LEE
Dion Lee shows a collection for the next FW 2014 inspired by Australia (where he's from), in which the woman body becomes specially important with asymmetrical cut-outs, tech fabrics and air into 90s Helmut Lang.
HELMUT LANG
Mohair wool knit and white are the highlights of Helmut Lang FW14 collection. The quintessential minimal brand remains true to its style introducing photograph prints of surface Mars in a garments that will be the delight of American buyers.
DELPOZO
The work of Josep Font, leading Delpozo as a creative director, is an example of the good work gets rewarded. The silks and drapes are hallmarks of Delpozo in a show that took in a few minutes more than a century in the Spanish trade mark. Simply spectacular.
PRABAL GURUNG
Prabal Gurung's collection celebrates the idea of wrapping and draping of fabrics. The designer sent out his models swathed in cape coats, wearing thick scarves tied high around the neck with a sartorial touch in a collection in which red and saffran colors are the dominating shades of the nomad Nepal inspiration.
DEREK LAM
Nada nuevo bajo el sol en el desfile de Derek Lam, pero sin embargo, me ha gustado muchísimo la utilización de la paleta cromática con colores tierra intercalados con colores pastel. Una elección del estilismo de 10 para una colección que promete por su estilo sencillo y cool.
Nothing new under the sun in the Derek Lam fashion show but I have liked a lot the color palette with brown colors and pastel. An excellent choice of stylish for a promising collection because its plain and cool style.
