Andrea Morell, Fashzilla Founder
The show is on as we can’t get enough. We bring you the best designers and collections presented digitally on Saturday at NYFW.
Kuon- Tokyo
Kuon opened the digital streamed shows on Saturday and blew us away. Through the collection the reference on Kintsugi also known “golden repair”, the Japanese art of repairing broken pottery by mending the areas of breakage with lacquer dusted or mixed with powdered gold, silver, or platinum is widely felt and gives off magical feel to it. As a philosophy, it treats breakage and repair as part of the history of an object, rather than something to disguise.
Hardware LDN
Hardware LDN is a London based and owned fashion house that specializes in high-end clothing, accessories and outerwear. Founded by Jessica Horwell in 2012, her initial designs immediately attracted a large celebrity following which has been growing ever since. Jessica threw an excellent show on Saturday with an edgy look and pops of colour which played wonderfully with the collection.
RaisaVanessa
Since bringing out in 2011 the RaisaVanessa fashion brand established by Raisa and Vanessa who studied costume design for performance at London College of Fashion has developed a modern and empowering language of clothing for women. Rather than a standard runway walk, RaisaVanessa brought us a pumped up video which gave great highlight to the clothing and the details. With the overall styling, music and performance the show had it all.
Son Jung Wan
One of South Korea’s leading fashion designers, Son Jung Wan graduated in 1983 from Sookmyung University, and then studied design at International Mode in Seoul. Opening her first self-titled shop in the shadow of the dominant Galleria retailer in 1989, she quietly plied her trade until a year later, impressed with strong designs, she was invited by Galleria to open a shop with them.
Brandon Maxwell
Prior to launching his eponymous womenswear label, Maxwell entered the fashion industry as a stylist. He began assisting Deborah Afshani in 2009,followed by Nicola Formichetti in 2010, where he was introduced to Lady Gaga and took on the role of Lady Gaga’s fashion director. Brandon’s play with femininity and deconstruction brought elegance and power to the runway.
