The New York Winter/Fashion Week 2012 once again brought us into the world of printing. Continuing the inspiration of last season's fashion week, even if it is based on a heavy color with autumn and winter charm, it will not forget the use of printed fabrics as the highlights and even the leading part of the entire release, the printed prints, and the detailed patterns. Blooming flowers can be seen everywhere.
Small print pick beam
“Usually, as designers, we like to add vitality to the fall with prints, patterns, and colors.†This was Rachel Comey, the designer, told us before her 2012 autumn show. At the same time, she also said: "This time, I try to replace all these commonly used design elements in order to bring a different autumn atmosphere to the show."
There are many designers who, like the Comey, try to use printed fabrics for embellishment, but they can achieve distinctive styles.
This season, the exaggerated print is no longer the absolute protagonist of the entire Comey show, but it also reflects its existence. Comey turned to focus on the choice of fabric. She went to a specialized fabric factory to pick out different fabrics. Among the fabrics she chose, perforated cotton fabrics and the use of laser-studded wool materials brought a lightness to this season's tops and tights, while a sexy, wide hem skirt featured a flash. The bright plastic texture of the leather fabric just added a cocky oddity. A small amount of prints and colors - just like tweed coats use orange for the color choices, a dress skirt is covered with surprising pink hearts, which gives the entire show a visual On the impact.
Steven Alan's fall men's and women's collections focus on worn-out tailoring and gray and sepia tones. These clothes use a variety of interesting craftsmanship, such as denim washed wool fabrics and light-colored pods and trousers. Elsewhere, Alan also made wonderful improvements to the representation in the closet, like using leather as the main fabric for a navy wind hooded jacket.
At the same time, women's clothing line follows the concept of men's wear. Many menswear fabrics are reused here, especially herringbone tweeds. The maiden temperament like pleated shorts skirts and moving long skirts use masculine check and soft silk prints. In addition, metal brocades provide a good contrast to the overall low-key atmosphere.
Theyskens''Theory fashion show, designer Theyskens used a print inspired by the crystal. In a sense, it made the golden blouse and the comfortable front zippered metallic tweed jacket look dull. The corduroy bell-bottoms that Theyskens showed on the stage in February last year have become a fashion. This year, the designer's new idea is trousers pleats, which he applied to denim shorts and black printed trousers, and tucked them into mid-rise leather boots in a loose manner.
Multi-level printing ingenuity
Some people embellished with printed fabrics, some people will print fabrics throughout the show. Whether it is dresses, trousers, or dresses, print fabrics can interpret the different "color" styles through complication and minimalism.
Marc Jacobs has always been the finest performer of the New York Fashion Week. In this year's fashion show, wool capes were under the woolen shawls, collage dresses went down, and irregular tailored trousers were made. The colors are laid out in a variety of ways, like a map; the prints are strung across giant, complex, ornate knit lines and pencils. The hand-crafted appliqué fills a variety of dresses.
Suno has always been known for printing, this season's two classic styling is a flower pattern suit jacket with loose draped trousers, and golden polka dot blouse and childlike print skirt with a good party look; Boy and Girl Scott Sternberg, the band of Oursiders designer, showed us the southwestern style of the United States at this conference. The drape-printed dress and the white jumpsuit decorated with small butterflies are unforgettable. The chunky and thick knit lines on Altuzarra's show were matched with colorful pompoms and printed tapestries. Prabal Garung continued his bizarre and glam-dark style at this press conference. Black and blue abstraction. The combination of line patterns and soft silk fabrics makes the original soft silk dress a bit cult.
In the Jenny Packham show, gold and black beads decorated with oblique dresses and printed silks with flowers are particularly memorable; Thakoon Panichgul's original dignified coat came in with a purple leopard in the collar this season. Lines, but the simple coverall can see the ingenuity of the designer in the shape of the sleeves and playful feather patterns; Derek Lam's main librarian style in this season matches a short movement with a warm kitchen print. The skirt suit and the collar have bright red print skirts; Rag and Bone's designers David Nevile and Marcus Wainwrigh applied the prints to different levels, arrows, diamonds, and iris prints, plus On the Indian-style skirt, and pants as a match, the level of rich but not messy.
Editor's Note: I remember a designer who said a few years ago: Fabrics will tend to be light and thin in the next few years; recalling last October's Shanghai Fabric Exhibition, many exhibitors’ products have blurred the boundaries of autumn and winter and spring and summer. With the release of the major autumn/winter fashion weeks of 2012, the autumn and winter fashion that has already been gradually getting rid of dark colors and heavy feelings has once again been elegantly and gently reversed. At some press conferences, it has been difficult for people to distinguish their seasonality... ... All the indications show that although autumn and winter and spring and summer still have their own characteristics, the seasonal differentiation of textile fabrics is gradually diminishing, which provides various fabric suppliers with different R&D directions.
