By Brown SS2014 Amsterdam Fashion Week

Models with soaking wet hair and a touch of turquoise underneath their eyes paraded the By Brown (Brown clothes before) catwalk on Saturday evening. They seemed to have just walked out of the sea, onto the beach on a hot summer day. A day perfect for pairing airy dresses and summer knits. A day for asymmetrical slouchy pants and pleated. Touches of leather and fiercely accentuated shoulders for later on. Whites, sandy tones and hints of aqua and yellow added to the summery feeling of the show. Some of the pieces of the RESTLESS SYMMETRY collection might never end up in a ‘real woman’s wardrobe’, but there were plenty of elegant wearable pieces (a designing skill designer Melanie Brown developed while working at Stills) that would. It was Browns first big fashion week show in Amsterdam and she certainly left her mark.

Mevan Kaluarachchi SS2015 Amsterdam Fashion Week

Fresh faced male models walked the runway at Mevan Kaluarachchi’s show this week. They sported the young Sri Lanka born designer’s perfectly tailored collection, which contained just about every piece a man needs during summer time. Like sand colored shorts, denim shorts and even light blue colored shiny shorts. Like slouchy striped pants and narrow pleated pants. Like (slightly transparent) white Tees and longsleeves. Like a cardigan with a baseball fit and a sportive checked jacket with leather details. Like short leather jackets, denim jumpsuits and shiny hooded jackets. Like duo colored sleeveless tops and white shirts. Like a decent leather bag, a cool pair of sunglasses and some casual sandals, all given the Mevan twist.

Edwin Oudshoorn Catwalk Fashion Show FW14

A Fools Paradise is wat designer Edwin Oudshoorn described his collection and the setting of his wonderful show at Mercedes-Benz FashionWeek Nederland. No classic catwalk-event, but an improvised forest as a poetic decor. The title also referred to the restrictions striving for perfection causes. The result was a rich and elegant collection with lots of dramatic elements.

Dorhout Mees Catwalk Fashion Show FW14

Passage is the name of Dorhout Mees’ seventh collection. A collection meant for vulnerable yet powerful women based on organic forms and contrasts in material, colors and prints. Inspiration for prints and accessories came from wood and bark. Esther Dorhout Mees also presented her fourth shoe-collection, this time inspired by pieces of wood and made by 3D-print-technique. Take a peek at this beautiful show.

Frida by Alexandra Frida Catwalk Fashion Show FW14

Alexandra Vollebregt is the designer behind the women’s label Frida by Alexandra Frida. As a former graduate of ArtEZ Fashion Masters she’s specialized in textile design. Her line is a summer oriented ready to wear collection created for the young women, adventurous and with a free spirit. We thought this collection is perfect for a new season of music-festivals. Catch some atmosphere during the show at Mercedes-Benz FashionWeek Nederland.

David Laport – Vodafone Firsts at Mercedes-Benz FashionWeek Amsterdam FW14

David Laport presented a new experimental collection at Amsterdam Mercedes Benz Fashion Week.
Het took inspiration from flowers, not only in bloom but also withered. His signature plissees were there, draped like flowers or with flower-appliques. Besides fragile white, mint-green and sunny yellow dominated the color-palette.

Atelier MariaLux at Mercedes-Benz FashionWeek Amsterdam FW14

Lilian Driessen is an experienced designer but hardly known in the Netherlands. It was the first time she presented her collection Atelier MariaLux at FashionWeek Amsterdam, and she made a serious impression. A live band performed during the presentation and was also part of it, since the singers were dressed in her vintage-like, elegant clothes. The collection was all about memories and feelings translated in creations with soul.
