Flirty designs at Kors, nature an inspiration for Marchesa at New York shows

September 15, 2016 By creative

Designer Michael Kors opted for flirty skirts and defined waistlines at his romantic New York Fashion Week show while label Marchesa paid tribute to nature and the colors of the day for its spring/summer 2017 collection. With singer Rufus Wainwright performing live, Kors sent models down the catwalk in designs that had strong shoulders and whittled waists in a color palette of tangerine, sand, navy and aquamarine. At Marchesa, designer duo Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig presented an airy, feminine line they said was inspired by “the journey of the day”.

David Beckham and Kevin Hart team up for fresh H&M campaign

September 15, 2016 By publisher

Soccer star David Beckham has joined forces again with American actor and comedian Kevin Hart, in a new campaign for Swedish fashion retailer H&M. The full commercial, which is set to go live on hm.com September 26, is set on a road trip which sees both Beckham and Hart sporting identical looks from the autumn/winter 16 collection of the new “Modern Essentials line, selected by David Beckham” — which lands in stores and online from September 29. The campaign story, once again directed by Fredrik Bond, picks up where the duo left off in their first commercial together, where Hart prepared to play the role of Beckham in a biopic film, and sees the two traveling from Los Angeles to Las Vegas, supposedly to meet financiers for a new Vegas musical.

New York Fashion Week ends on a colorful high

September 15, 2016 By creative

New York Fashion Week wrapped up on Wednesday with an all-American finale from brands including Ralph Lauren and Michael Kors. Ralph Lauren, who hit the headlines earlier this week when it was revealed the house would join the growing coterie of brands adopting the 'see-now-buy-now' retail concept, took the Wild West as his main inspiration for Spring/Summer 2017. Michael Kors is another brand transitioning to see-now-buy-now, but the designer doesn't seem to be losing sleep over it, judging by the joyful aesthetic of his colorful collection.

AI participated in designing this supermodel-worn dress at the Met Gala

May 3, 2016 By publisher

Technology has officially infiltrated fashion, and last night’s star-studded Met Gala served as proof. The glamorous event, always known to set the fashion police’s tongues wagging, took on a very 21st-century theme on Monday, with guests offering their takes on this year’s theme — Manus x Machina: Fashion in an Age of Technology. Thoroughly embracing this modern marriage are IBM and Marchesa, who debuted a so-called “cognitive dress” on supermodel Karolina Kurkova. On my way! @marchesafashion #MetGala #emotionalintelligence #wearabletech @ibm #MetGala2016 pic.twitter.com/nyI6OR22wC — Karolina Kurkova (@karolinakurkova) May 2, 2016 Calling it a “first-of-its-kind garment with cognitive inspiration woven into every step of the creative process — from concept and R&D, to design, and finished product,” the dress comes from the combined atelier of fashion powerhouse Marchesa and none other than IBM’s Watson. Not only is this AI powering hotel concierges, giving us recipes, and tracking the Masters golf tournament, it’s now designing dresses as well. Who says you can’t do it all? “This all started when we learned about the Met Gala theme,” Ann Rubin, VP of branded content and global creative at IBM, told AdAge.

Paris fashion week: five striking trends

March 3, 2016 By admin

The front row guests at Dries Van Noten's sumptuous show were ready to give their (redone) front teeth for anything from what Vogue called this “spine-chillingly elegant” collection of leopard-spot suits, gold lame coats and poison-green furs. The stand-out show so far drew on 1930s aristocratic dandies and the Marchesa Luisa Casati in particular, who never left home without her pearls or a pet cheetah or two. Paris has rounded up the waggons and gone West for inspiration.
