Etienne Aigner for Spring 2013 and A New E-Commerce Launch!

by

The Etienne Aigner Spring 2013 collection includes everything from clothes to jewelry to Apple accessories, with the brand’s signature style as a pastel, marble print that is both fun and calming. The accessories were all done in nubuck leather, which is softer and smoother than traditional leather. What really made this collection special was the high attention given to the details; suede and nubuck embellishments were also found on the clothes and jewelry, providing them with an extra fashion-forward pop. Detail can be seen in all of the handbags as well, which were crafted to be both stylish and practical, including easy access pockets and innovative clasps.

The classic oxford flats were recreated in the pastel hues and were cut deeper at the top, making them much more feminine. In addition, Etienne Aigner has accessories for iPads, iPhones, and more devices, including products in the marble printed nubuck leather.

Etienne Aigner is also celebrating the launch of their first e-commerce site today! You can find all of their amazing fall/winter pieces including oxblood doctor’s bags and snakeskin-accented accessories. Check out all of their fall/winter styles here!

Alice and Olivia’s Spring 2013 collection is a flash back to 1950s Woodstock and Miami Beach. With bright primary colors and icy blues and papaya oranges, the pieces have us itching for sunshine. A major highlight of the collection was the use of colored leather, with well-tailored moto jackets and shift dresses were featured in bright yellow, vibrant orange and pastel pink leather – definitely a must-have for spring.

The denim and tea collection also made a big statement,  sure to be a hit in 2013 by bringing back detailed, embroidered bell-bottom jeans and t-shirts. The brand also launched their first line of handbags for spring including everything from large gold metallic snakeskin tote bags to small clear plastic clutches.

The Show: Dennis Basso Spring/Summer 2013

The Theme: Glamorous seaside in the 60s

The Color Palette: Blush, champagne, pearl, shades of blue and sheer black with metallic accents

Best/Collection’s Signature Standout Look: Shown in the ideal setting of the rooftop at the St. Regis, the collection felt straight out of a fairytale. Any woman would feel like royalty in one of Dennis Basso’s gowns with the long tulle skirts and chinchilla fur wraps and vests. The intricate beading and feather embellishments only added to the luxury. The highlight look would have to be a champagne-colored hand embroidered ombré tulle gown with a sable fur and lace capelet – absolute perfection.

The Show: Alejandro Ingelmo

The Theme: Athletic sneakers and sleek stilettos

The Color Palette: Bright neons and mermaid metallic

Best/Collection’s Signature Standout Look: Alejandro Ingelmo did a complete 360 with his spring collection, swapping chunky, sensible heels for sexy stilettos, throwing in the ever-popular brightly colored sneakers. Each shoe was so unique its difficult to pick a standout look, but we fell head over heels in love with the metallic gold pointed toe stiletto with a geometric cut out heel. Simply genius

The Show: VLOV

The Theme: Tranquility and Stability

The Color Palette: Soothing Colors including stand, navy, black, and light blue

Best/Collection’s Signature Standout Look: Each of the menswear looks exuded effortless chic due to the use of crinkled silks and linens in neutral colors and sophisticated cuts. Linen jackets and blazers paired with shorts and leather sandals completed the serene feel of the collection, however, the showstopper was the finale look. Consisting ofa light orange blazer and matching pants paired with a white silk Hawaiian printed shirt, it was completely unexpected and entirely fabulous.
