DelPozo y su desfile americano

Trabajan meses para ello, invierten miles de horas de diseño, patronaje y confección en cada prenda, en cada colección y por fin ven la luz.

     Diecisiete minutos de un espectáculo emocionante en el que culmina todo un peregrinaje de la creación. 

DelPozo otoño-invierno 2012- 2013

Josep Font para DelPozo desde Nueva York

Lineas contundentes inspiradas en las siluetas cambiantes de la naturaleza, detalles bucólicos y estampados florales como contrapunto a los vibrantes conjuntos de colores planos y los contrastes de texturas.
     De nuevo Josep Font ha logrado elevar el sentido de la moda española hasta lo más alto. En esta ocasión y por primera vez para la firma, el director creativo de DelPozo ha mostrado sus sublimes creaciones en el centro de Manhattan.
     La Semana de la Moda de Nueva York ha desplegado su alfombra más colorista para recibir al maestro de la arquitectura textil, que ha seducido a la Gran Manzana con un espectáculo de volúmenes elegantes acompañados por las melodías de Au Revoir Simone.
     Sin pretender ser parcial, una vez más he de quitarme el sombrero ante la solemnidad de un creador que da sentido a este arte emocionante llamado Moda.
     De momento os traigo algunos detalles de lo que se vio ayer en Nueva York. Ampliaré la selección de fotos en cuanto me sea posible.

Mara Hoffman Spring 2011

The Mara Hoffman presentation encompassed essential Spring/Summer wardrobe staples. A tribal tone clearly prevailed. The mix of muted olives and mustard yellows married well with the pops of hot pink and lime green. The live South American music mingled fantastically among the palm trees, sand and mojitos. There was a cool, calm and casual air about the entire collection. Brava!


{I cannot wait for Spring to wear olive tone rompers}


{Keen on everything about this: heavy eyeliner, skinny belt, hat and beach hair}

{I must have taken 20 pictures of this dress.}

{Casual cool, I'm partial to the loose fit}

{Graphic print pants are all I want now}

{The esteemed Kelly Cutrone}

{Dreaming in color} - This was the day I spotted Kate Lanphear. She walked right by...

Inspired in part by her own personal style of dressing, Hoffman introduced what she called a "military gone native" theme. The collection featured vibrant prints with mystical and ethnic influences.

Today is my Birthday. Excited for NCFW tonight and a romantic dinner. Thanks for all the wonderful Birthday twitter messages. :)

Sprinklers and Popsicles

With Summer slowly dwindling down… I can’t help but to embrace some of the things I’ll miss the most come the darker, colder months. Sprinkler dashes and strawberry popsicles. Pineapple slices. Sipping on sweetened Iced Tea while watching reruns of Who’s The Boss? Parading around town in shorts and sandals, sans jacket. Tanning by the pool. Kate Moss for Topshop SS 10. This song. Don’t get me wrong, I can’t wait to wear layers again, play in the snow and warm up with Hot Cocoa and the Golden Girls. Now if only the Hallmark Channel would bring back Charles in Charge too…

What I'm most excited about right now is New York Fashion Week. This year I'll be attending shows, conferences and Fashion's Night Out. I'll also be popping by IFB's Evolving Influence Conference on September 9th at the Hudson Hotel. Make sure to get your tickets early. I hope to see you there!

Illustrious

Today just so happens to be a nasty, rainy day... so, I decided that instead of trying to fight it, I would just give in and in turn stay in. Luckily I rented a couple of movies the other day (Smother, My Best Friend's Girl and Monster in Law) was able to rifle through a few New York Fashion Week images, and read some more of my Who What Wear daily book, which I recently received and have found to be quite fun and informative. I learned how to decipher why I like the designs and designers that I do, and what exactly causes this inclination. After paying close attention to the specific images I found myself saving today, I noticed a pattern. My eyes are quickly drawn to the two extremes; classic and structured cuts using mainly black, gray and white with some kind of metallic detailing, or the other, being color, and lots of it; including floaty fabrics and vintage-inspired prints. I like what I saw from Anna Sui and Vivienne Tam (all color, hippie frocks and wild in idea) as much as simple and classic architectural pieces seen from Doo.Ri and Vena Cava. I also have an inkling that another favorite of mine happens to lie in the super-short or body con fitting. Low slung shoulder bags and hefty platform sandals finish the mystique for me.

Some stand out pieces that really caught my attention and adoration were the sparkled, short, zebra-print infused, fun frocks from Proenza Schouler. I think it's time to proclaim my crush! Vivienne Tam offered up some bright green dresses that made me want to play Peter Pan in. Carlos Miele melted my heart with his use of wispy fabrics and bursts of color straight from the land of rainbows and unicorns, or so it seemed to me; magical. Charlotte Ronson took aerobic wear and girl's night out wear to merge a simple, fun, yet comfortable, and on top of the trend look. Acid wash bodysuits? Yes, twice!! Phillip Lim, Brian Reyes, and Isaac Mizrahi brought classic, feminine back. Phillip Lim, especially, was able to keep a strong hold on basics and classics while still managing to bring in some fun frills and thrills. Cynthia Steffe stole my heartstrings with her large, floppy bows, pastel gear and minimal makeup. Erin Wasson x RVCA was a hit, once again. See it here. Phi brought back flashbacks of Tomb Raider and Hackers, for me. In fact, I'd love to see Angelina Jolie in any one of these ensembles. Naeem Khan evoked Gothic beauty and The Princess Bride into the overall collection and concept. Marc Jacobs never disappoints, especially when it comes to his bountifully colorful Marc by Marc Jacobs line. Love. Jill Stuart, I just want to tell you how much owning this entire look; head to toe (bag included) would mean to me. Adore! Milly was fun, provocative and full on flirty. A definite keeper. DvF aka Diane von Furstenberg stayed true to her roots. To end with a bang, Dennis Basso seemed to bring every sultry siren from the old pictures back to life through his decadent dresses and sumptuous accessories.

Jill Stuart. The New Balmain? And how about some more Wang?

(New York Fashion Week continues...)

A little bit Futuristic and a whole lot of fun. Party frocks for everyone! Jill Stuart also kept the little jacket up to date in all its studded, cropped glory; worked in stovepipe pants and a whole lot of shimmer, glimmer and shine into her delicate, yet showy pieces. With it's mesh accents, lace and posh perfect cuts, the collection is fit for a Queen, a Queen Bee that is. Blair Waldorf and the gang just might be spotted in Jill Stuart for the third installment of Gossip girl. A girl can hope. What do you say S & B? It's a collection you either love or hate. I'm veering on love. Especially on the piece I've circled above. I'll be dreaming of that frock, tonight... the whole outfit in it's entirety, actually.....

And a little more Wang for you, because quite frankly, Alexander dear, you amaze me in all that you do! Athletic wear becoming everyday girl wear? Lace-up, zipper infused cleats.. with studs!?!? Thank you for dreaming, it is thoughts and creative ideas like these that inspire us all to push on and try out our own personal dreams, no matter what they may be. The subtle shine in the collection conjures up an almost angelic vibe. Angels in the Outfield anyone? It also doesn't hurt that most of my favorite models were in your line-up: Isabeli Fontana, Anna Selezneva, Regina Feoktistova, Snejana Onopka, Natasha Poly, Lily Donaldson.... Sigh!
