Fashion Week Amsterdam SS2015, this was Day 3
Day three of Mercedes Benz Fashion Week Amsterdam was a day of extremes, with the modern menswear of Mevan Kaluarachchi to the colorful collections of Vibrant Pakistan.
Tony Cohen SS2015 Amsterdam Fashion Week
The fashion circus closed early this Sunday. At 7.30 p.m. Tony Cohen already concluded a full day of fashion by presenting his style ideas for next year’s summer. A summer which will be full of amazing, chic trousers for women (even a silver colored leather one), mostly combined with structured, seductive tops, if you leave it up to Tony. The ladies will dress up in asymmetrical (pleated, airy) dresses, long and lean skirts, cropped (leather and linen) jackets, high heels and sheer hats, pink eye make-up, big silvers bracelets around their wrists.
As for the lads.. they will rock slim trousers, tunic-like shirts, toggle cardigans, long scarves and tailored jackets. They’ll have long wavy locks and thick beards in Tony’s world. They’ll be the perfect match to Tony’s sexy amazons and they’re the perfect addition to the Dutch label, which has proven to be super consistent over the years. From now on couples can shop their wardrobe together at Tony Cohen. An fashion expansion that, by the looks of it, is bound to succeed.

Jourmain Kids SS2015 Amsterdam Fashion Week
Would our Dutch soccer team be playing the World Cup finale tonight, it would have been one extremely exciting day for footballer Jeremain Lens. But luckily (oh well..) Lens only had to worry about one thing today; the launch of his very own luxury kids brand Jourmain (jour + main = seize the day). In front of an amazing backdrop created by Dutch illustrator Piet Paris professional kids models showed the very first Jourmain collection ‘Bright New World’, which is all about craftsmanship & luxury. Or, as the label stated: “Couture fabrics crafted into ready-to-wear clothing makes beautiful pieces that are like candy”. Inspired by dressing his own kids Lens sent out flared sequined party skirts, tweed suits and ruffled dresses for girls. Overalls, leather jackets and trenchcoats for boys. Adult trends translated into small sizes. Always with a fun young twist and a lot of shine, accessorized by big hair, bowties, cute little hats, shiny boots and eyecatching sunglasses. A green 3D skirt embellished by shiny beads concluded the kids party. Lens didn’t take his bow at the end, but the crowd (including lots of kids) was loudly cheering anyway.

Models with soaking wet hair and a touch of turquoise underneath their eyes paraded the By Brown (Brown clothes before) catwalk on Saturday evening. They seemed to have just walked out of the sea, onto the beach on a hot summer day. A day perfect for pairing airy dresses and summer knits. A day for asymmetrical slouchy pants and pleated. Touches of leather and fiercely accentuated shoulders for later on. Whites, sandy tones and hints of aqua and yellow added to the summery feeling of the show. Some of the pieces of the RESTLESS SYMMETRY collection might never end up in a ‘real woman’s wardrobe’, but there were plenty of elegant wearable pieces (a designing skill designer Melanie Brown developed while working at Stills) that would. It was Browns first big fashion week show in Amsterdam and she certainly left her mark.
Mevan Kaluarachchi SS2015 Amsterdam Fashion Week
Fresh faced male models walked the runway at Mevan Kaluarachchi’s show this week. They sported the young Sri Lanka born designer’s perfectly tailored collection, which contained just about every piece a man needs during summer time. Like sand colored shorts, denim shorts and even light blue colored shiny shorts. Like slouchy striped pants and narrow pleated pants. Like (slightly transparent) white Tees and longsleeves. Like a cardigan with a baseball fit and a sportive checked jacket with leather details. Like short leather jackets, denim jumpsuits and shiny hooded jackets. Like duo colored sleeveless tops and white shirts. Like a decent leather bag, a cool pair of sunglasses and some casual sandals, all given the Mevan twist.

Tonight designer Bastian Visch became the first winner of Lichting 2014. Together with 13 other fashion graduates from all over the country he presented five pieces of his graduate collection. A collection looking further than cultures and subcultures, led by universal beauty ideals. Eye catching were his voluminous silhouettes, his use of color, his trompe l’oeil effects and photographic prints. Out of the 14 students a professional jury and selected members out of the audience chose Bastian as the lucky winner of the V&D Talent Award. Bastian will get a chance to develop a capsule collection, which will be sold in a number of V&D warehouses in spring 2015. “Winning this award is the key to my future”, the young designer stated.
Well done & good luck!
