Karssenberg-Greidanus Amsterdam Catwalk Fashion Show SS2013

What a way to open a fashion show! At Karssenberg-Greidanus a model, who had her upper body hidden in an enormous balloon came to the door, walked the runway and then let the balloon explode. After that ‘big bang’ the models appeared, wearing muddy wellies mixed with a variation of raincoats and dresses.

Their faces were covered by the same material as the rain capes were made of. Dresses were wrapped around the models’ bodies with thick ribbons. Glass like materials on a long top represented water drops and gave the collection it’s elegant touch.

It certainly didn’t feel like a typical summer collection, but then again that was never Sanne and Cleo’s intention.

Should we cover our ears? The Individuals fashion show started with extremely loud and incredibly dark music and looks in shades of broken asphalt to match. Tough models wore ethnic inspired looks that breathed progress, strength and necessity; the three themes of the collection, which was actually a squeal to the previous Individuals collection of last season.

They wore grungy over-accessorized looks with lots of black leather. Corset-like tops, baseball jackets and large hoodies were all in the asymmetrical, layered streetwear mix.

After all the darkness, a touch of primal / fuchsia was added to the collection as the music got a little more pleasant to listen to. Then fuchsia changed into deep shades of sand and beige only to end in a series of full bone white looks. Every outfit was richly styled; golden headpieces, scarves wrapped around the models heads, messy, braided hairstyles and eye-catching bangles were all in the mix.

After some ethnic drums and the sound of birds it became completely silent and light on the catwalk as all looks a appeared on the runway once again. Leave out the heavy accessories and the sky-high shoes and you’ve got yourself a selection of very wearable streetwise clothes. A few of the TPS team-members have even already prepared their Individuals wishlist!
