Olivier Theyskens wanted to create a futuristic collection for Theyskens Theory without it looking too utopian. He translated that thought in a silhouette with strong shoulders on tailored, basic pieces and a play with proportion with several voluminous dresses. Several quilted fabrics added a cocoon touch. The vibe was down to earth although the designers borrowed his ideas from spacesuits (quilting) and weightlessness (floating volumes).

Phillip Lim presented a well balanced fall-collection, good design with commercial value. The designer referred to motor-racers and played along with biker-vests, racer-back dresses, zipper details and leather patches. The layers gave a modern, streetwise touch – as did the outerwear, roomy shorts and skinny cargos.
Tommy Hilfiger Catwalk Fashion Show Womenswear New York FW2013

For his fall 2013 women’s collection Tommy Hilfiger drew from the same inspiration as for his men’s show: Savoile Row meets Ivy League. A key inspiration was Tommy Nutter, the man who gave Savile Row a swinging Sixties profile, dressing all the cool people like Beatles, Mick Jagger and Twiggy types included. Nutter loved fabric mixes — mash-ups of plaids, checks, tartans and more. Hilfiger opened his show with a group of coats and separates in various combinations, the mannish tailoring often offset by Mod-like mini kilts. The outerwear continued with printed shearlings, ponyskins, bonded khaki mackintosh coats and cozy toppers made of teddy-bear fleece.

A return to the body, is what Donna Karan had to say about her FW2013 collection. Sensual, soulful and sculptural was the title. And it referred to the clothes that indeed reflected her sexy, bodycentric allure. Karan draped, twisted and slashed her jerseys in great dresses. There were also beautifully sculpted coats. Capes are a trend right now, and the designer did all kinds: asymmetrical and sweeping in jersey, built into a jacket, to the floor for evening.

For fall, Diane von Furstenberg found inspiration in a mix of glam rock and Studio 54 — a moment in the Seventies when she began to spread her wings.
Without a creative director by her side for the first time in over a decade, Von Furstenberg managed to recapture some of her label’s essence that she felt had recently gone astray. She did so in no uncertain terms, along the way exploring numerous aspects of Seventies glamor from the wrap dress to disco-ready bronze lamé blouses and gold leather pants. She also reworked some of her early prints, i.e., chain and animal motifs

The DKNY Fall collection presented several of the label’s iconic items, including an oversize quilted bomber. It once represented “street style” when the term actually implied a little grit. Urban outfitting was the focus this season. Oversized parkas and sweatshirts were featured, as well as fun animal prints. Karan also added large rounded shoulders to her silhouettes, particularly on structured mini-dresses and tops that combined multiple fabrics including Neoprene.

It is definitely visible in Victoria Beckham’s fall-collection she’s back in her homeland. For fall 2013 she focused at English heritage fabrics executed in an easy and modern way. With adding more textures like pony-hair and bright blue and yellow mixed with black, gray and brown it all looked fresh and striking.
She went on with tailoring and made that visible in her coats. Some of her shift dresses read Swinging Sixties, but there were also sexy looks: lean silhouettes cinched at the waist with slits that showed lots of leg. The designer also played with new proportions. Very chic were her structured, draped and belted tuxedo dresses. For evening she presented some takes on the smoking, with a coat and dress featuring trompe l’oeil sleeves which looked as if they were elegantly hanging off the models’ shoulders.
