Custo Barcelona @ Amsterdam Fashion Week AW12
The fashion brand brought Spanish flair to Amsterdam! We all remember Custo Barcelona from years ago with the trendy and colorful shirts - that was the image Custo Barcelona had for a very long time. But the brand with the graphic prints changed. This time the designs were full of colorful graphic prints in a patchwork form. Layering and the Spanish flair made the designs up-to-date. The ankle...

Tony Cohen @ Amsterdam Fashion Week AW12
Beautiful. Elegant. Sophisticated. These words perfectly describe the collection of Tony Cohen. The color palette was stunning and fitted so well to the designs. Draping details and supreme fabrics made the collection typical Tony Cohen. Fake fur, leather, lace and chiffon were the perfect ingredients for the very feminine and elegant looks.

Individuals @ Amsterdam Fashion Week AW12
INDIVIDUALS: Mumbling of an Artistic Thread. Individuals experimented with packs and tribes. Set to Dizzy Rascal, individuals challenged the art of interaction, showing the possible future of globalization. A post-apocalyptical pack of beasts mongered the runway wearing swaths of neutral linen. The a neo-utopian tribe was connected by their movements more than their outfits.

Dark, structured patterns dominated the cropped fit. Elongated body-lines contorted forms with cropped jackets and svelte mono-suits. Angular, art deco shapes met 19th century dark formality in conductor hats and animal ears. The Royal Academy of Arts graduate has a...

Jivika Biervliet @ Amsterdam Fashion Week AW2012
- Hali Dardar, RP Amsterdam Team
JIVIKA BIERVLIET: Bunnies and gags. The first show of Fashion Week Thursday housed androgynous menswear and grotesque knitwear.
It is unexpected in menswear to have a non-standard shoe. Jivika Biervliet created a line of space-age inflatable thongs whose androgyny and considerable impracticality tied the show together. Biervliet collection of menswear...
