Ports 1961 Spring 2010 Collection

by fashionpulse

10 14 00210m

Designer Tia Cibani is an avid traveler, something that is always apparent in her globally-inspired shows. For Ports 1961’s Spring 2010 collection, “Fleure,” her destination of choice was Japan. Elements of oriental design were woven through the nature-heavy collection, from geisha-inspired hair and makeup to Obi sashes, kimono silhouettes, and Origami. The palette consists mainly of earthy tones, ivories, crimsons, lavendars, and pale pinks strewn against different fabrics and textures, such as silk, cotton, metallics, and linen. Though many of the pieces were literal takes on traditional Japanese style of dress, they were nevertheless modern and wearable.

Ports 1961 Pre-Spring 2010 Collection

by Julia DiNardo

GetAttachment

GetAttachment-1This week I had the pleasure of attending the Ports 1961 pre-spring 2010 collection. Held above their Meatpacking District store, the event was a warm, intimate gathering that gave me plenty of space and time to individually touch and examine each piece; a rarity and experience that enhanced my interest and appreciation in the collection. favorite dressDubbed “The Tea Room Collection” and inspired by the 19th century Art Nouveau artistic collaboration between Charles Mackintosh and his wife Margaret MacDonald, the collection was steeped in hidden details, lustrous fabrics, and smartly tailored accents. There was a bit of beading work applied to some jackets, tops and dresses (see left), while other looks stood out for their rich hues of silky plums and nudes (my favorite is the dress at right).  Speaking of favorites, Ports 1961 was kind enough to send me creative director Tia Cibani‘s top five looks, seen below.

Fashion Week Day 7 Recap

There’s been a major time lapse since my last one-liner show review, so I thought it was time I put up the final installment of the extremely brief New York Fashion week reviews! Here’s the remaining four from the last Thursday of fashion week – enjoy!

00230m1Brian Reyes: With the teetering models aside, the strong collection executed amazing pleating, tailoring and prints, which will surely give other designers in his league some heavy competition!

Rebecca Taylor: Girly comfort dressing that one can wear over and over and over again via cozy knits, feminine ruffles, and a tiny bit of leopard print

00310mPorts 1961: Inspired by India, Tia Cibani chose to work with dramatic shapes in a mostly pale color palette, which made the pieces of color pop even more.

img009_runwayChristian Siriano: It was love at first sight, with all of the sharp cuts (the jackets!!!) and expected drama present (head pieces!) with an amazing surprise — his incredible Payless shoe collection!
