Ohne Titel : NYFW SS 2011


For the last 3/4 seasons or so Ohne Titel has without a doubt maintained top five NYFW collections on my chart. The design duo bring something new, fresh and extremely relevant to the runway each season. I loved great sportswear and their collections master that time and again. Great use of neoprene as a detail fabrication, easy silhouettes, beautifully tailoring and a great palette.

RAD by Rad Hourani : NYFW SS 2011


Black and white, androgynous super future is how I would quickly sum up RAD by Rad Hourani’s SS 2011 collection. The music on RAD’s runway (see video of runway and hear music here) was as bold as the looks. Though his collection is quite progressive for ready to wear, I feel with every season the young designer is continuing to carve a very special place for himself in fashion.

VPL : NYFW SS 2011


Loved, loved, loved the VPL collection. I was really into this bondage style, channeling a deep flashback to Leeloo from The Fifth Element earlier this year in a styling job I did. So this was an immediate connect with my current sources of inspiration. The nude palette kept the collection from feeling too busy and over designed.

Jeremy Scott : NYFW SS 2011


Kelli Osborne, Kanye and Sarah Colette sat side by side at Jeremy Scott’s show. The first looks were some of the most exciting and what we wait to see each season from a JS show. Inspired by deli grocery plastic bags, Jeremy used a fabric that I could have sworn from my seat was the actual plastic bag itself, with prints that had “Have a Nice day”, “Thank you for shopping here”, “I love NY” and “Fuck You” repeats in dissolving opacity made to look like the plastic bag that usually reads” thank you, thank you, thank you…”

Besides that series I loved the prosciutto looks. The models looked like they had prosciutto carefully slapped along their silhouette. It looked so raw and so most importantly felt so Jeremy.
