Trend Report SS2013: Opposites Attract

This season it’s all about material mixing. Of course we were already wearing shear tops with heavy skirts. Yet this time around single fashion pieces exist of a mix of fabrics. After seeing leather accents such as collars, cuffs and pockets for a few seasons it’s all about transparency this summer. Think cotton tops with sheer silky parts, satin skirts with transparent hemlines or dresses with see through mid riffs. Not cut-outs but body parts just subtly covered by a fine layer, adding some seductiveness to the look. While Viktor & Rolf created a clash with their metallic fabric, Paul Smith showed some contrast by using lace, Jason Wu opted for leather and Dolce & Gabbana blew everyone away with their use of cork. Other labels such as Blumarine, Céline, Gucci, Stella McCartney, Chloé and Chanel showed multiple variations of sheerness, sexy, tough and sportive. Looking seductive was never this chic.

Trend Report SS2013: Sorbet Chic

They´re feminine, flattering and look so sweet you almost want to take a bite out of them. For this year too the international runways were filled with pastel shades. From vanilla and lemon, to blueberry and pistache; sorbet chic is the color way to go. Always part of the sweet tooth team Blugirl and Blumarine, but also Valentino and Chloé went for sheer, ruffled pastel looks. As Fendi (shades of salmon and mustard work so well together), Chalayan and Mulberry opted for a cleaner kind of look. And that´s exactly how we saw these pastel hues back on the streets; less feminine (away with the ruffles and the lace) and more structured (thick fabrics, masculine shapes). Surprising in a way, yet still very natural. Which flavours are you combining this season?

Since a few seasons now designers seem fully focused on the far east. We’ve already seen collections with oriental shapes, techniques, materials and prints, but the Asian hype not over yet. For this season the Japonism is fashion is just taken to the next level with designers being divided into two Asian inspired worlds. The ones Emilio Pucci, Carolina Herrera, Altuzarra who opt for decorative designs, traditional techniques, bold prints and color. And the designers Etro, Stella McCartney, Prada, Marni that focus on shape and structure, introducing trouser suits, shirt dresses and architectural kimono shapes. Now you don’t need to go all the way (Geisha platforms, dragon printed dresses, Obi belts) like these designers to join the Asian celebration. Just invest in a subtle embroidered blouse or a chic kimono jacket. Mixing Japanese influences with your modern wardrobe pieces like they belong together in one look, that’s the trick.

Countless fashion lovers dress head to toe in black every single day. A smart, safe style option you can never go wrong with. Now it seems there’s a pretty good alternative to all that black; fully dressing in white. Big brands like Chloé, Alexander Wang, Comme des Garcons, DKNY, Emilio Pucci, Givenchy, Jil Sander, Lacoste, Marni, Missoni and Rochas all picked up this positive, clean and summer proof trend. With looks ranging from tuxedo to sporty chic, from casual to more party inspired. The strongest SS2013 looks contain not only multiple white fashion pieces, but have different materials too. So mix your light knits with some crispy white sheer parts and add some jersey details along the way. Russian streetstyle sensations Mira Duma and Anya Ziourova have already been sporting this trend for a few seasons and it won’t be long till the rest of the world follows. Once you go completely white it just feels right.

Iris van Herpen is working on her very first ready to wear collection as we speak. Yet she didn’t let that exciting new project get in the way of delivering a picture perfect couture collection in Paris this week. With her fourth couture show Iris showed a small selection of dresses inspired by the unpredictable aspect of lightning. Starshaped twizzling energy points, made with the use of a 3D printer, translated the lightning in her designs, which breathed originality, craftsmanship and a progressive fashion attitude.

 

Dior Haute Couture Paris SS2013

For spring Raf Simons said he “didn’t want to do a heavy concept, hence the idea of the garden, flowers, spring and the evolution of that.” So he presented us with a tent full of green hedges and the freshest looking models. Sporting chic red lips and slightly wet locks the Dior ladies appeared in a series of designs in the most unexpected shades. Burgundy, deep green, yellow and back were mixed with shades of neon, nude and soft pink. Strapless dresses were fairytale like, cigarette pants refreshingly chic and a floor sweeping skirt and top were both modern and timeless. We still have to get used to the bright colored tights, but as we saw during last night’s ELLE STYLE AWARDS this trend is picked up pret-ty quickly.

Miu Miu Catwalk Fashion Show Paris SS2013

On a barely lit runway Miuccia Prada sent out her fifties style ladies. Ladies that appeared elegant, but there was something off. Their clothes were tailored, but ill-fitting. The designs had a feeling of couture, yet were definitely ready to wear.

Miuccia did her first few looks completely in denim; pencil skirts, large coats with ¾ sleeves and strange tops. Pointy shoes, long leather gloves, rhinestone details, high bangs, long hair and cat eye glasses to completely capture the Mad Men feeling.

Even though the models appeared like well dressed fifties women; there was not one ‘picture perfect’ in the collection. Rich fabrics were destroyed (satin was pummeled, furs were tie dyed) and poor were upgraded (dark denim was lined in satin). “It was not about destroying elegance, but achieving a different kind. Very Parisian,” said Prada, “but in a fake way, in a wrong way! The femme fatale is never perfect…at least the ones I like.”

The dark show area, the countless furs and not the brightest of shades Miu Miu didn’t really breath summer. Yet Miuccia did manage to portray that 2013 feeling by bringing together conventional chic with contemporary raw.
