Blending Chalayan ’s signature modern edge with Mavi’s chic take on denim, the Chalayan and Mavi women’s collection is one we admire. When athletic elements meet slick silhouettes the result is fabulous. See more here, and purchase over at Mavi.
Enjoy a look at more of the styles from our visit of Puma’s Spring 2013 preview. The always cool Alexander Mcqueen collection as well as Hussein Chalayan.
Launching at Dover Street Market on July 21st, the fragrance by Hussein Chalayan produced by Comme des Garçons is titled “Airbone,” a nod to Chalayan’s effect-filled Autumn 2007 runway. Definitelya launch we’re excited about.
Designer Hussein Chalayan as sponsored by Swarovski, presented his Autumn 2011 collection in the form of a film, featuring a floating dress. Inspired by Japan and its evolution from a closed off country to one more receptive to outside ideas, the presentation is called “Kaikoku,” which translates to open country. In this video, the designer explains the creative process. It’s fascinating because unlike a lot of artists Chalayan is quite articulate in explaining his ideas, and it makes one realize that so much of the success of artists is not only that they have other worldly visions, but they are able to make them a reality because they’re not deterred or simply don’t care if everyone else thinks they seem crazy or strange.
If you want to see the dress in isolation, visit Ashadedview. On the next page, the actual presentation.
