NOA-NOA French Style Arrivings for this Spring 010
PARIS 68
THE COLLECTION
Marcella Lindeberg has moved 25 times in the past 13 years. If she's not a free spirit, I can't imagine who is. And freedom is what the name Paris 68 means to her. The radical spirit of all those French students and workers who manned the barricades in 1968 to express their disgust for the war in Vietnam has devolved into Lindeberg's collection of clothes for women who are, as she put it, "on the move all the time as mothers and wives." Women, she insisted, who were just like her, shopping for groceries and cooking for their families. That was a little hard to believe given that, at the time Lindeberg said this, she was wearing a sleeveless second-skin dress in black silk georgette, its hem a riot of vibrating tassels, its single concession to mumsiness an elasticized waist. But Lindeberg has always been a rock 'n' roll mom.
Yesterday she was creatively consulting on William Rast with her husband, Johan; today she was launching her own long-time-coming collection (Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel turned up in a show of support). And tomorrow? Are Depeche Mode in town? She'll be there. Her clothes were a reflection of Gahan/Gore's very particular rock-tastic spirit—dark, gothic, strict, but Lurex-sparkly. If the huge shoulders were a little too Balmain-esque, the tensely tailored jackets with their flaring peplums were the kind of items that scream for a rock-chick strut. The adult-diaper construction that dictated the silhouette of the pants was unfortunate. That same rock chick would probably prefer the pelmet minis with matching tights, maybe even when paired with a swirling cape. Paging Batgirl! But even the most eccentric aspects of the collection could be justified by the fact that Marcella Lindeberg is the woman these clothes were designed for. And that is true fashion integrity.

THE INSPIRATION
THE HEAVY ROCK
THE COLLECTION
Puffed shoulders made repeat appearances, here on a fitted charcoal herringbone jacket, there on a cotton flannel plaid blouse or jewel-tone velvet top; a black suede tunic with leg-of-mutton sleeves was sashed at the waist over flaring leggings. Mixing masculine and feminine with his usual deftness, Lauren slipped a chesterfield on top of a floor-grazing georgette dress, and cinched distressed leather belts around the washed Shetland wool jackets he paired with ruffled skirts.
There was a pinstripe interlude that looked tailor-made for his tony clientele, but not unlike his Spring collection, with its Great Depression-inspired beaten-up blue jeans, this one seemed pitched to a more downtown crowd. That was especially the case when it came to evening. A passementerie embroidered silk ottoman coat was plenty posh, ditto a black silk georgette and tulle beaded gown. His flower-print long dresses, however, were layered over lacy long-sleeve tees in a way we've seen young designers doing all week. If this felt like strange new territory for Lauren, there were moments—as with that silk georgette fils coupe gown—when it was fertile ground indeed.

AMAZONS OF THE XIX CENTURY
jueves, 18 de febrero de 2010
Fittingly, given this progressive approach, the clothes were mostly youthful and fashion-forward. Acra didn't hold back with her signature opulence and flair for all-out glamour, but the slouchy elastic-waist sequined frock, rainbow feather-and-bead vest, and wool jacquard coat with red shantung polka dots could work equally well for both a vibrant socialite and her teenage daughter. The designer veered into over-the-top territory at times—one look featured ombré shantung, tulle, gold sequins, ribbons, and an explosion of feather flowers at the shoulder—but for the most part the digital format appeared to bring new energy to the brand.
