Diesel Black Gold’s Andreas Melbostad presented a space age collection during New York Fashion Week. The designer offered up to the fashion savvy a set of looks that evoke images of flying saucers and star fleet uniforms. The collection as a whole kept a monochromatic theme with touches of shine and the occasional metallic silver. The overall silhouette of the Fall 2014 collection is sleek and sharp offering brilliant tailoring and a flattering cut. In addition to the monochrome mirrored embellishment added a hint of whimsy as the light bounced and danced along the garments.

Fall 2014 collection presentations tend to coincide with Valentine’s Day, and Tadashi Shoji’s new collection is geared toward a woman seeking the intense romance of yesteryear. Designed for an au courant woman, Tadashi Shoji is filled with luxuriant textiles, ornate architectural details, and palatial soundscapes.

Robert Geller Fall/Winter 2014: The New Direction

by Shawn Frego February 14, 2014

written by Shawn Frego 2 minutes read

Chic- Not a term usually associated with menswear. But, isn’t it possible for men to wear clothes that feel elegant and thoughtful. From skinny belts to leggings, Robert Geller challenged menswear to be more daring through his Fall 2014 collection. Geller’s collection showcased what the trendy man of the future would look like. This man isn’t afraid of knits nor shiny things. He certainly isn’t afraid of mixing stylistic choice. And, he most certainly has a voice when it comes to style. In fact, the styling is what keeps these pieces believable. While attending the show, I never questioned whether I could see a man wearing any of the clothes because as each look came down, I instantly saw the man who would wear them. In that way, Geller really hit the mark on creating a storyline and customer (characters).

Lucio Castro Fall/Winter 2014 Collection

Lucio Castro fall ’14 joined the boys club at Industria studios and presented its best take of “Broke Back Mountain Goes to the City.” Laugh if you want, but the casually refined collection might be on to something.

Layered flannels, sporty polo shirts, blazers, and cardigans anchored the collection but the one piece that ups the ante – a remarkably tailored quilted black jacket. Paired with a casual pant and Midwest-inspired fedora, the quilted black jacket is one of the best jackets of the season.

I know that proper fall ’14 collections are being presented but I’m already tired of the color palettes being used – everyone will be wearing black, white, blue, and various hues of gray in the upcoming season. I guess we will all deal with it.

Katya Leonovich Fall/Winter 2014

by John Stolen February 12, 2014

written by John Stolen 1 minutes read

From her very first runway show in 2001, Katya Leonovich has implemented a signature “beautiful garbage” and this year’s show has been no exception. Her staple garment patterns – a chic criss-cross in effect, bubble dresses, and unique incorporation of prints – all made a welcome appearance in her F/W collection. In a largely gray color palette, the show had an air of rock glam – shimmering garments with metal details, paired with perfectly coiffed faux-hawks and killer thigh-high boots, the line embodies an aesthetic fit for a modern-day, imperial Russian Princess.
