Pre Fall 2014 Collections: Part I
While we are expecting the Chanel show on Tuesday so bad, let's review the recent Pre-Fall collection that some designers already presented:
Burberry
Inspirations: Arts & Crafts movement in the late 19th century in England, also modern architecture such as the Chrysler building in Shanghai, and the streets of London as a print on a trench coat, Matilda Lowther was the model chosen by Bailey to represent the woman of the season, his color palette is all in very obscure hues, there is some shining thanks to the brocades, and some surprises such as the green mint dress and the lace dresses. Textures: chiffon, jacquard, lurex, fur, and prints.
Alexander Wang
Wang went from chasing logos to chasing cows, or that's what his collection looked like. This collection was focused on the west attires, and also it focused on the disintegration of the fabric, nibbled cashmere and shirts along with unfinished hems and unraveled fabric used as fringes were his main techniques for this collection. His color palette was pretty much black, white, navy and gray, with some pop of color in some pieces. The star of this collection of course were those over the knee cowboy boots. Lexi Boling was the model used to give life to those Wang's outlaw renegades.
3.1 Phillip Lim
Now this is how I imagine Pre Fall should look like, this is probably the best collection at NY for the Pre Fall season, Mr. Lim played with textures, with tromp l'oeil details such as the suit slayed in two different fabrics, as well as his bronze bomber jacket, also the cutest part is the little dog that was in one of the sweaters, this is a really good selection of clothes, textures, colour palette (mostly bronze, B&W and pop of colours), and all is paired with his amazing footwear and his cute bags resembling the hair of Caniches
Proenza Schouler
Another great collection from NY, you might think that this collection is very similar to the one that they presented in September, and you are right, they tried to follow the same concept of their previous collection, and as they said: "the pre-collections are about product and about filling our stores," this time they used orange suede and oxblood leather. Their asymmetrical cuts are back and coats reached the mid calves, again, I want to point out those boots that are just knee leveled in natural shades. Color palette was consistent in greys, whites, oxide oranges and oxblood, black was also a big part of the collection.
