Sass + Bide

Sass +Bide used contrast to create harmony via mixing navy and white polka dots with sequins and bright silk, which felt bold and refined at the same time. Strong metallic and tribal beading formed a beautiful alliance. If there was one thing that left viewers pondering, it was how could “opposing forces” possibly work so well together?

Vivienne Westwood Red Label

Vivienne Westwood wholeheartedly believes in fashion and fun as one unit. Through adapting historical garments into more modern pieces, Westwood shows no restraint, which is what we often love most about her. Over-the-top hair and makeup imposed even more sculpture to already exaggerated suiting pieces, as trousers, jackets, and blouses were untamed, and extravagant in dimensionality. For the eclectic designer, fashion continues to be a living political expression and art form warranting conversation, even decades after her brand’s inception.

Jonathan Saunders

Jonathan Saunders traveled back in time to a period of graceful femininity by using a delicate, “sugary” palette of colors, simple sundresses, negligees and pinafores that were reminiscent of the 1950s wholesome housewife. Traditional fabrics, such as pin-dot printed cottons, jacquard, and silks kept things orderly, while ombre skirts, and dresses paired with sheer silks broke free of the old-fashioned, retro air as if to say cheers to the modern woman in all of her relevant roles.

London Fashion Week Favorites: Sass & Bide, Matthew Williamson, Jonathan Saunders

Matthew Williamson

Back to London fashion week in order to celebrate its 25th anniversary, Matthew Williamson introduced a somewhat surprising collection that featured body conscious and modern clothes instead of his signature boho look full of florals and butterfly prints. The clothes were heavy with intricate embellishments, geometric designs (the triangle prints were especially exquisite), metallics, gathered waist skirts/shorts and bright colors. All in all, the show featured a lot of the trends we’ve seen thus far for Spring 2010 collections — nothing too revolutionary and perhaps slightly unfocused — though Williamson’s interpretations are definitely among the best, and of course a collection does not have to be cutting-edge to be good. Very bold, very flashy and very on-trend, the collection however remains completely wearable and feminine, true to Williamson’s roots.

Sass & Bide

Made up entirely of Sass & Bide’s signature black, white, and gold color palette, this show nevertheless remained unique and captivating and is definitely my favorite collection from Sass & Bide in quite a while. From pristine and glamorous chrome-topped Grecian gowns to harem pants to (my personal favorite) metal leggings, the clothes are reminiscent of the ancient Egyptians and Aztecs, creating a futuristic warrior-chic feel and are able to separate themselves from the other collections we’ve seen thus far that have heavily favored embellishments.

Jonathan Saunders

The muted, calming color palatte shown at Jonathan Saunders was a welcome change from the dramatic detailing that’s been so popular on the runways for S/S 2010. The light, breezy fabrics and transparency come like a breath of fresh air and this collection is truly perfect for springtime. The models sported fresh-out-of-the-shower hair, which added to the overall ethereal aesthetic of the collection. Neon colors and linear designs were overlapped with frosty shades that created both a soft and modern, if not exciting, effect.
