Victoria Feldman and Tomas Berzins presented a joyful collection mixing their
versatile designs with Art and Music. At La Caserne In Paris the 10th, a new
eco-incubator for fashion and luxury, the duo set their collection against
the backdrop of a giant inflatable pink pyramid by artist Cyril
Lancelin. Placed in the middle of the countryard, the installation was
the center of the runway with models walking through it on the live beats
mixed by Lewis Ofman.
As last season the designers presented a collection full of reversible pieces.
Each ensemble can be worn two different ways and can easily carry from daytime
to evening. The concept is centered around conscious consumerism and how we
can do more with less. The duo collaborated with Artist Edward Crutchley
who's work is featured on prints and leather clutches.
The design aesthetic
is well thought out, parka's and easy chic trench coats with cut-outs on the
shoulder and long fringed dresses in bright orange. Mixing the prints, the
intense green with utilitarianism and smooth soft colors as taupe and beige.
Combat boots, puff pants, suits with cut-outs, guys on pumps it all came
around and together in it's concept of multi-wear.
We thought this, with the giant spectacular pyramid, was one of
the bests set seen this season. We love
how the duo mixes Design, Art and Music together in their inspiration as well
as in their pieces and presentation, as it gives expression and more depth in
their work and garment.
Absolute favorite pieces were the long (trench)coats with a slight
mesh layer and cut-outs on the shoulder. The coat is a bit oversized but due
to good tailoring it's chic and somehow sporty. Another great outfit was the
black suit with cut-outs on the knees and studs/rings which also comes in
white. We love the small duo bags combined together as in bright and soft colors.
Last but not least the kitten heels with spirals on the top, big shout-out.
