Sage & Ivy Catwalk Fashion Show Amsterdam FW2011

Today Alexia van Engelen surprised us with her brand new Russian inspired winter collection.

We saw some gorgeous embroideries and beautifully detailed blouses and evening dresses, followed by shiny leggings and corsetlike tops. The airy fabrics and the use of lace made the models look very elegant. It also made us think of chic dinners and long nights in front of the open fire. Nights on which a knitted cardigan or a furry cape would come in handy

The shape and the tailoring of the clothes was perfect. Also the colors of the collection (shades of cream, white, beige and just a little bit of black) felt nice for winter. ‘Cause it doesn’t always have to be all black right?

We fell in love with the show area too; the Felix Meritus building was a perfect match with the Russian story of this new Sage & Ivy collection

Great job Alexia!

Marloes Blaas Backstage AIFW FW2011

Marloes Blaas presented a strong and balanced collection. Backstage the details of her clothes were better visible and surprising. The fabrics with prints of roadmaps were wonderful as were the recycled militairy workwear.

See the collection here.

Look at our preview here.

First impression: Sage & Ivy

Although not at the official list of the AIFW, the Sage & Ivy-show was well visited by press and curious fashion-lovers. It was the second collection of designer Alexia van Engelen, and this time the collection was inspired by St Petersburg.

Marloes Blaas Catwalk Fashion Show Amsterdam FW2011

Marloes Blaas showed at the Zuiveringshal today, a bigger show area, so a great step for her. The collection called ‘a woman’s merit’ was inspired by the forties and had lots of world war references in it.

The show started with heavy materials like old army tents, leather and chunky knits (capes and pants). Yet there were some airy, feminine items too, like blouses and jumpsuits. Marloes used old maps from the world war too and in that way recycled her materials like people did in the forties.

Check our show preview for more background information on the show of Marloes Blaas.
