Everybody in the Pool!

In the past, it is safe to say that swimwear to me just seemed like "outside lingerie". E.MACBEAN reinvents this category with the emphasis put on the fact that swimwear is "outside clothes".

Two for the Road

Utilitarian parkas and easily chic trench coats fly down the runway with swishing long fringed pieces. There is no need to sacrifice dramatic expression for utilitarianism. Bold prints in neon green are anchored by shades of taupe and obsidian.

Fashion Apocalypse

Once upon a time there began a beautiful fashion house born from Nigerian designer Kenneth Ize. It would evolve into a pivotal collection for African designers and be showcased to the world on the Paris Fashion Week platform.

Structured Luxury

In this gender-neutral collection, Ujoh AW21 breaks all boundaries of silhouette, color and materials. Relaxed and asymmetrical tailored styles are fluid against a body. Oversized jackets and separates are pulled back together with corset style belts.

Italian Spring

Mr. & Mrs. Italy revisits their four iconic pieces: the parka, the jumpsuit, the bolero and the trench coat. The silhouettes are simple and minimalist but made dynamic through the usage of organza camouflower pattern. The feel of this collection is fun, kitschy and whimsical.

Chaotic Juxtaposition

What were once lively weeks where industry professionals and socialites converge and admire the artworks of these designers are now links to virtual fashion shows sent to a select few in the industry. It all came to a screeching halt in 2020.

"Cozyristic"

In a world where we are reevaluating the way we consume and live, fashion is not a category to be overlooked. We express ourselves and our identities through the clothes we wear. In this pivotal time that we are experiencing now, who we were is not who we are becoming. Exploring the existence of ourselves, living with less is changing the fashion game forever.

Curious and Curiouser

Side C, the transformative look at classics that focuses on innovative pattern making
in order to offer multiple ways to wear and interpret garments, finds a further new dimension: a vertical one, in which top and bottom can be both used, switching from one shape to the other in the flip of the axis.

Free Spirit

"Memory of a Dress"

AW21 Edeline Lee presents her collection as a short story, "Memory of a Dress" in collaboration with podcaster Paul Bae. Edeline comments: “We are all navigating the digital landscape right now, but my brand operates on a human-scale." This season is an experimentation with storytelling in digital mediums, positioning fashion back in the realm of a form of performance art.

Upcycling Fashion in LA

Through the years I have followed Manny as he evolved from the Gents Closet to Thread Haus and his journey has been unfolding beautifully. More recently he has introduced upcycling into his collection and continues to build on the sustainable and forward thinking way of creating his collections. I recently asked him a few questions regarding his journey and here’s what he had to say…
