That's why theres TEN in the word POTENTIAL.
That night was just a groundbreaking preview of their exquisite and superlative craftmanship for there will be an exciting competiton among the TEN chosen designers to watch next year.
Im only gonna say a lil something something on the designs and designers which roused my interest.
I really adore Stacey Rodriguez's street-devil-may-care collection. The stunning body con dress with pink cape was one of her best pieces that night. The volcanic tye dye treatment of her clothes was ostentatiously superb. It really spoke a lot about the fun designer herself.
Although the theme spoke about crystals, Nixon Marquez offered a macabre yet solid perspective hence, the peculiar exaggeration of collars, drapes and lineament. The crystal theme was infused in his own way as evidenced by the geometric appliques and the models' iridiscent maquillage. I can see a lot of big things ahead this avant garde power dresser. In fact we are experiencing a lot of good stuff from him already.
Jona Ballaran is also another fave of mine because she used flowy fabrics, making her evening dresses opulent and dramatic in a non-obtuse manner. The asymmetrical overlaying of rich yet thin fabric on the dresses were surprisinglyt effective as it created a palpable amount of energy and life albeit the monochromaticity of the collection.
Enrico Carado's eccentric armored dresses were tasteful and sensibly crafted. Its as if the clothes were made to provide a seemingly soft avant garde and modern approach. The treatment, the construction, the palette all in all amalgamated into something dreamy, glacial but not delusional.
Seriously, Camille Co surprised me! I just heard from friends that she makes RTW streetwear apparels so i was honestly shocked when i saw her hi end , heavily intricate couture designs. There is a grand story behind the clothes and i can feel the unadulterated emotions transferred on the creations
who's your bet? whose work do you covet?
lets all hope for the best!
wonderful photos :) Wow, yes preview indeed chose great talents which were very evident in their works. *clap* to all of them. I was also surprised to see camille co's couture designs at first.
