Loewe brought on the fake clothing. Last season it was full of the pixelated items this season Polly Pocket clothing and garments printed on garments. The world of Loewe is ever growing and it’s shown within this collection. With the rise of everything is leather, Loewe also took part in this trend. The Polly Pocket style clothing specifically was the what is real and what is leather. Leather aside, there were pieces fully made of feathers and suede.
Giambatista Valli inspiration this season was Josephine de Beauharris, the former wife of Napoleon Bonaparte. With the nostalgia in full effect this season this was another brand that looked at past looks. Nostalgia aside, this collection was very regal as well. Tweed and sheer gowns reigned supreme.
Yohji Yamamoto will always have my heart since most of the collections are always in all black. To add pops of colors, red was incorporated in the collection as well. Yamamoto started the show with him singing setting the general mood of the collection. Raw edges, leather, and bias cut dress made up most if not all of the collection.
Nina Ricci was another brand with all eyes on them this fashion month season. With Harris Reed taking over we were all waiting to see what would be brought to the table. Full disclosure I don’t go crazy over Reed’s own brand but Reed at Nina Ricci is another story. Here he perfectly executes the brand’s heritage while keeping it modern. The first look being my favorite.
Finally Coperni will be the finale to my post. Unlike last year where they quite literally made the internet stop, this year they wanted to take a more subtle approach. Riding the high of the spray on dress last year, they decided to bring Robo-dogs to the runway. Here the models would descend down the catwalk and interact with the Robo-dogs, some nodding at them while some held their garments or accessories. This season the designers took inspiration from the folklore “The Wolf & The Lamb”. This is seen throughout the collection as some scenes were printed on garments, look 31. Around 70% of the collection was also recycled.
