Tibi Spring/Summer 2011

by Desha Winborne

Tibi’s 2011 Spring collection reflected the laid back ease that often follows the shift in seasons. Bright happy colors and airy fabrics dominated the runway scene. The silhouettes were decidedly less fussy than autumn and created to provide comfort as well as style.  Tibi’s spring forecast is dominated by mod dresses and playful rompers.  The color palate whilst mostly neutrals was accented by bright tangerine orange and an occasional lilac or blue toned piece.  We loved the bright yellow of this spaghetti strapped jumpsuit.  The cut of the pant and ease of the bust are flattering and chic.

Designer Amy Smilovic captured a Flirtatious “Alice from Wonderland” entity, with her Tibi 2010 Spring collection. As the models began walking the runway, there was a child –like nostalgia that filled the tent. The ribbon in hair, beautiful yet playful dash of watercolors, floral references, and feminine silhouettes brought this collection to a place of innocent elegance. The canvases of the garments were clean and consistently vibrant.

On Location: Tibi Fall 2009 Fashion Show

by xoJohn

A few weeks ago we brought you an exclusive interview with Tibi designer and creator Amy Smilovic. This fashion week season we were invited to the runway presentation of the Fall 2009 line.

The quote by Amy Smilovic at the top of the Tibi itinerary read “Fall is about a light-hearted moodiness influenced by the Russian fairytale “The Tale Of The Firebird.” Okay, so we’ll see some Russian influenced clothes this evening! This should be interesting. Based on her previous fall line, which I LOVED, I was excited to see what she had to present.

I was a bit disappointed with the overall fall line. There were a few stand out pieces, but the rest of the line was a bit simple-dull. The Russian influence translated in the ever-present black pieces and fur hats and gloves. There were ruffles, boxy pieces and she brought back paisley, which has to be colored a certain way for me to like it and this was not the case- damn those Russians! My favorite out of the simpler designs though was the Yelena Bustier Jumpsuit- a dark purple bustier, high-waisted black, loose, ankle tight pants. Simple, chic, nice!
