Cushnie et Ochs Spring Summer 2010 Collection
Julia’s Exclusive Interview with Carly Cushnie and Michelle Ochs!
It’s hard to describe the feeling when you know you’ve seen one of, if not the best collection at fashion week, but that’s how it felt as soon as the second look walked down the runway. Carly Cushnie and Michelle Ochs, gave a new shape to both structured and fluid clothing, quite remarkable when you think that all of the areas of fashion design have already been explored. The duo created cut-outs that looked like waves, weren’t afraid to utilize mesh, as well as accent erogenous zones. Take note of these two designers because they are the next big thing, with their collection already carried at Bergdorf’s.

Luca Luca Spring 2010 Collection
Luca Luca’s spring 2010 collection can best be described as light and bright. Half the collection consisted of simple white pieces shot though with bursts of fuchsia, cobalt, and goldenrod patterns. The other half consisted of full on bold colors – spring is here! The sweetheart neckline was also quite prevalent throughout the show, along with off-the-shoulder, and rope halter silhouettes. Luca Orlandi tended to favor a loose construction and rounded edges this season-a break from his more structured garments. Soft sunburst pleating appeared on many of the dresses and also the foam evening gowns, and tiered ruffles definitely dominated the collection this season. Ruffles and pleating seemed to largely be used to break up sections of stiffer pieces, as well as composing entire gowns of sheer tiers, pleats, and ruffles. Last, neutral taupe linen dresses, jumpers, and trenches were also included (often with peek-a-boo patterned pleating) for a more casual day in the life of the Luca Luca lady.
