Colovos S/S 2018 – Review
INSPIRED BY: The idea of a futuristic bazaar and the nuts and bolts of emergence theory, whereby larger entities arise through interactions with smaller, simpler ones. Titled, “Multiform,” the show provided a fresh take on New York City staples – think pared-back 90’s minimalism with a subtle Japanese influence.
POP-CULTURE NOD: Hilary Rhoda sipping a Matcha tea behind the wheel of a vintage convertible on the streets of Beverly Hills in between takes on a photoshoot for Estee Lauder.
WEAR IT TO: Your conversational French class in Paris, before dashing to your afternoon nannying gig, where you push the pram housing your a crying wo-year old down to the Seine to save your sanity.
FIRST READ: Modern updates on the camel trench, a black relaxed-fit blazer featuring a checked print, deconstructed white shirts and double denim looks gave the collection a polished, ladylike vibe, while strappy sundresses in geometric prints and slouchy V-neck knits made for fitting wardrobe additions for your next Euro vacation.
BEST LOOK: A long white shirt worn under a cropped black bodice and teamed with black satin pants and strappy Grecian flats.
EYE-CATCHING ACCENTS: Fabric belts with hoop metal hardware detail, flyaway ties, zipper detailing and multifunctional separates added to the wearability of the collection from former Helmut Lang design husband-and-wife team Michael and Nicole Colovos.
SPOTTED IN THE FROW: Leonora Jimenez, Joaquin Yglesias, Valeza Rodriguez, Kirsten Lock,
OVERHEARD COURTSIDE: “I can imagine Angelina Jolie at a UNICEF meeting in every look.”
COLOR WHEEL: Rust, white, indigo, red, khaki, camel, black, burgundy,
