My Picks - Alexander Wang Resort 2014


There's a strong sense of experimentation within this collection through construction and cutting techniques.
Plus a flash of colour, what was Wang thinking! ;) Watch this space!

My Picks - Christopher Kane Resort 2014

A breadth of ideas was presented in Kane's Resort, as we know the brand is now part of the Kering Group. This in turn is allowing Kane to push his creativity extensively which before was more trying due to resources.  

Exploration of the computer graphics from the 70s & 80s have been interpreted through print, jacquard and oversized lace motifs. Mixing this with sweats, denim and knife pleated skirts. 

Kane's reclaiming his turf, and its exciting!

My Picks - Proenza Schouler Resort 2014


I definitely felt there was a lightness to this collection, a looser vibe. The Proenza boys have been experimenting with new silhoulettes and pushing luxiourious finishing techniques. Bravo boys, I'd wear every look given the chance!

My Picks - Chloe Resort 2014


Oh, how I would love to be the barefooted girl who inspired Clare Waight Keller's latest collection for Chloe. The derelict swimming pool serves as a great backdrop for the shoot with subtly toned mosaics complimenting the collections palette.

My Picks - Balenciaga Resort 2014


This season Alexander Wang and the design team at Balenciaga went to Guetaria on Spain's Basque coast where Cristobal Balenciaga was born. Here they gathered their primarily research, studying the coutrier's work at the Cristobal Balenciaga Museoa. I never visited the Basque Country when I lived in Spain which seems absurd now looking back. The museum looks incredible.

 

The resort collection is presented in a creative way with stunning imagery showcasing mulitiple angles of the garments. Cocoon tops and soft orgami folds demonstrate reworkings of the master of haute couture. The monochrome palette is strengthend with textural fabrications and 'scramble' prints. I for one am excited by Wang's second collection, what are your thoughts?
