Toni Maticevski sent out a long line of stone-faced models in smart skirts and elegant dresses. The models walked in a circle around the stage. A spotlight on the side of the stage made for some very interesting images with all the beautiful lace and tulle.

Civilization as we know it has fallen. 4 Times Square sheds glass in high winds as if it were molting, all that remains of The Champs-Élysées is overgrown weeds, and the streets around Piazza San Marco are explored only by bats hungry for mosquitoes. Yet fashion has marshaled on. Here preserved, seven images from the last box of instant film in the world.

The latest book by one of the editors of the European fashion magazine Bunte, Paul Sahner, is all about the fabulous Karl Lagerfeld. Shaner has followed “The Kaiser” as a connoisseur for the last 15 years, with a lot of very one on one interviews, which have now been compiled into this tome. The book covers Lagerfeld’s youth and childhood, as well as the career progression through the middle of 2009. [editor’s note: This book is so new it is still only available printed in German, but English and French translations are expected soon. Fortunately, the modaCYCLE team includes four German fashion photographers, and one of them just finished reading it.] Continue reading “Karl – The New Biography of Karl Lagerfeld”
Gottex is not new, but this season sees a new creative director at the helm of this global champ swimwear brand. The debut show put on by new designer Molly Grad was nothing short of brilliant. The high energy vibe, the sexy curvy models, and the “own it” suits made this one of the sexiest shows of the week.

On the last day of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in New York’s Bryant Park, there was a collective showcase runway show by some of the top Argentinian designers. Over the last few months I’ve been encouraging our modaCYCLE photographers to be a little more experimental in their approach to runway photography. At the end of the runway you have 400 photographers with the same few standard cameras and the same few standard lenses, all trying to get pretty much the same shot. And where is the fun in that?

From the lovely sand- colored daydress with sculpted shoulders and wide ribbon sash, to the flower- strewn strapless mini-dresses that closed the show, Anna Molinari’s vision of a 21st Century Blugirl is tightly a tightly edited bundle of a girl’s many moods, and a prevailing sense of fun.

The Spring 2010 Collection show for Anna Molinari’s lighthearted line, Blugirl, began with peachy- beige silks for day and explosions of color for dress- up evenings. Ruffles, animal prints, seashells and poppies added up to an unforgettable show.
I saw more confidence, stronger lines, a greter variety of print patterns, and a much more considered voice. There were more risks taken, and though the fingerprint of the what I saw before was still there, this was new, and there was obviously some editing that had gone on since she showed her first collection at Patricia Fields’ house last season.

I first met Gerlan Marcel at one of the trade shows last season. She was sitting at a table in the corridor outside Showroom Seven, surrounded by wildly colored garments with an odd texture. It turned out they were all printed denim. It was mostly printed denim jeans and jackets, some things that looked like sweat pants, but not a whole range really.

Models were staged as student and professorial types in an academic setting for the presentation of the Araks spring-summer 2010 collection. Most known for her luxurious lingerie line, Araks Yeramyan presented a collegiate-themed line of solid and printed separates. The Library of The General Society of Mechanics and Tradesmen acted as the cerebral landscape and central inspiration for these daywear spring looks.

Walking into the white studio space, I saw a lineup of frozen models held up by the strong cuts of Victor de Souza’s spring-summer 2010 collection. It is a sublime fusion of both the classical and the fantastical.
