This year’s New York Fashion Week theme was “celebrated women”. Models from media, journalism, sports, music and the arts donned red designer outfits specially created for the event by designers showcasing their collections at New York’s Fashion Week.
New York Fashion Week is in full swing with one of the most talked about shows being by feminine and flirty dresses designer Tracy Reese. “It is very glamorous,” Reese said about her new designs. “It is very modern. It is going forward. Lengths are shorter. Silhouettes are refreshed. We are doing more volume on top, maybe a little bit less on the bottom. We are still playing with trapeze dresses but we also have a lot of lean dresses. There is a good juxtaposition. I think there is a lot of different choices for different women.” She said: “Every woman should have a perfect dress; a dress that suits her figure and that really enhances her where the colour is right and the fit is right and she knows it is going to be good for whatever life presents.”
And they are popular with celebrities too. Singers Alicia Keys and Kelly Rowland attended the show. Model Veronica Webb is also a fan of the latest line.
Reported that 30-year-old fashion designer Alice Roi was one of the many children enchanted by the tales of the little French girl with a unique muse for her quirky designs. Fabrics for Roi’s new collection, which she calls Madeline, include baby-pink dotted Swiss and white gauze. Skirts and blouses feature quirky, uneven and imperfect hems and necklines. “It came full circle for me because in some ways I was getting the inspiration from the same surroundings that he was,” Roi told the Times. “There’s something about this neighborhood that’s not perfectly pristine. It has a bit of a scarred charm, which I think Madeline has, too.”
Meanwhile from Asia, designers from the continent seem to have a poise and insightfulness often lacking in American and European fashion. After attending the Akiko Ogawa (Japan), Chris Han (China), Maticevski (Australia), Cabbeen (China), and Tadashi (Japan/China) shows, one major trend emerged ??? shades of gray and a luscious metallic palette. The color gray is used to provide transition and connection, balance and safety in Feng Shui. These grays (sometimes reverting to black and white, with very occasional flashes of bold color) and metallic tones, though, are actually really warm and feminine ??? inviting and soft rather than cold and harsh. Fabrics are soft and flowy, and utterly gorgeous. I don???t know if the above collections were a conscious effort to calm our high-strung, dangerous world, or an unconscious reaction to our increasing polarization and isolation.
