The Show: Katie Gallagher Spring 2013
The Theme: Everything Forever- an ode to the remnants of our past, ingrained in us and ever-present
The Color Palette: A decidedly minimalistic color palette comprised of ivory, creme, raven, and metallic slate.
Best/Collection’s Signature Standout Look: Gallagher’s Everything Forever featured form-fitting silhouettes of luscious lambskin and kangaroo leather separates, high neck halter dresses and stylish peplums. Draping was present in most of the shapes, along with sheer fabrics, reinforcing the demure femininity that this collection was inspired by.
The Show: CZAR by Cesar Galindo Spring/Summer 2013 Runway Show
The Theme: What A Woman Wants
The Color Palette: Bright, bold hues of citrus colors: raspberry, tangerine, chartreuse, azure, and persimmon along with neutral naturals of stone, sand and noir
Best/Collection’s Signature Standout Look: With every model that came down the runway, a new option of feminine dressing arose. Beautiful draping and interesting hemlines dominated the pieces in Galindo’s Spring/Summer collection and smart, easy to wear shapes like trapeze and maxi dresses made these items desirable to any woman. Luscious iridescent twill separates were the ideal compliment to the soft silhouettes in the line. Sequins and shine also had their time in the spotlight, matched up with sophisticated brocades and natural prints. No matter what a woman may want from fashion, CZAR by Cesar Galindo can deliver it to her.
