NEXT SUMMER FAVORITES

Fashion week has been over for weeks. I have been re-playing every summer collection I’ve seen in my mind and made a top three of the best ones. Wearable, refreshing and original. These are the three standards the following three designers loved to think about while designing.

3.1 Phillip Lim

If there’s one designer of whom I’ve never hated a collection, it’ll be Phillip Lim. He makes such grand and beautiful clothes. And this collection had everything. See-trough materials with patterns sewed upon, dressed trousers, T-shirts with cut-outs, leather and alienated sleeves. My favorite piece of clothing was definitely this shirt in modified leather. I love how the brown leather has blue effects. Another highlight in the collection was the patchwork sweater. Patchwork has already been seen but he brought it to a new level including see trough material and little strings of cloth. The collection was perfection. Such a shame of that peplum top, I’ve saw enough peplums for a while.

Dries van Noten

The first show I’ve ever admired in my life was from Dries Van Noten. I’ve always thought of my compatriot as a very talented designer. And he didn’t state the opposite with his last show. Purity versus extravagance. He painted a very chic but still rough woman. Strong and cool. The kimono kept inspiring Van Noten as well as floral prints. Lovely colors as beige, red, bordeaux, gold and black dominated the collection. Loose clothes and strappy sandals gave a timeless spirit.

10 crosby Derek Lam

As if there was made a collection especially for your need of comfort at your office. This modern, simplistic but classy collection made the woman in a suit long for more. Elbow-room seemed crucial, and that’s a renewing trend to state. The fashion was in the little details and the shapes.
