Herve Leger by Max Azria, New York fashion week Spring/Summer 2013

  Herve Leger's new collection featured the signature body-con dresses, with a twist of quilted fabric.

    Quilt-making was the main inspiration behind this collection and it is a fresh perspective into Spring / Summer 2013. The dresses are a combination of the famous Herve Leger body-con dress and skater A-line dresses.

The models wear fabric which has been quilted into solid structures and often solidified by belts which look like PVC to draw attention to the small waist of the models. Some of the collection seems to reflect the current nineties revival as the tight summer dresses boast spaghetti straps and a mini length.

   The shoes seem to be similar to Victoria Beckham's s/s shoes, they are heeled shoe boots and have a peep toe with buckle detail. The swimwear collection uses chains and animal print, the fabric also looks as if it has been plaited, and uses strips of fabric to resemble belts on some of the swimwear.

   The collection seems to reflect many Autumn / Winter trends of grunge and Gothic revival, the collection looks to be very successful and cleverly designed to develop from A/W.
