CURIOSO : IWS DESIGN COMPETITION 1954

The International Wool Secretariat fashion design competition was the precursor of The Woolmark Prize. The winners in 1954, and pictured are Karl Lagerfeld, 21, best coat, with a yellow, collarbone cut jacket, and eighteen year old, Mathieu-Saint-Laurent, later Yves, winner for best dress. “A dress too dazzling to wear twice”, was a dress that enveloped the shoulders in a seductive black sheath. The rest is history.

A photo of Karl Lagerfeld’s yellow jacket is included below.

ALEXANDER MCQUEEN SS18 WOMEN’S WEAR

沿花園小徑直行的,可能是個匆匆忙忙的皇室吧,從細節上的繡花花朵、皺褶裙擺可以大約估到她的身份。這裡可能是鄉郊其中一坐別墅,一條美麗的粉紅色婚紗裙開始慢慢、慢慢變成要腐爛的黑色禮服。很難想像中間經歷了什麼事但肯定是很煎熬的。今季是最近幾季以來我最喜歡的一次,Alexander McQueen的團隊做出讓人驚訝的手工紡織品。這季更有種像跳舞服裝的設計和活潑感,令我更期待下一季呢!

CALVIN KLEIN SS18 WOMEN’S WEAR DRESSES

今季Raf Simons為Calvin Klein做了很多超棒的裙裝,斯文性感的、型格瀟灑的、時尚創意的…很多很多的好看裙子。特別是裙的物料,例如藍色和紅色的V領連身裙和黑色斜肩裙用上了風衣般的材質,反光的光感讓人看起來端裝的。而物料因為比較輕,做到隨風飄逸的瀟灑效果。另外彩色流蘇的三件連身裙也同樣美妙,以魚網和流蘇作主要材料,織出長短不同的裙擺和蓬度,造成不同形狀的裙子。身體的擺動讓流蘇不停舞動,十分狀觀。

Really digging the dress varieties from Raf Simon via Calvin Klein this season. Raf referenced Americana circa the mid-west; cowboy influences. The dresses not so much. They floated within the collection, but also stood out on their own. From nylon, solid color one’s on a more minimalistic approach, to tassled, textile pieces with a more deliberate form. Much great variety to choose from here!
