proenza schouler

If it weren't for the sky high minis, one would think the Proenza Schouler spring show was actually intended for fall. The return of the body conscious shape, a neutral color palette, and feathers are big for fall and made their way into what Lazaro Hernandez and Jack McCollough have in store for next season. It was a notably hard show with aggressively short hems and cinched waists, but there was a lightness to the edge that made it something quite different from what everyone else showed this season. Although their trademark bustier didn't make an appearance this season, there was a feminine structure that accentuated the waistline and gave the models a fuller looking shape. The shoulders were strong and the legs kept bare to speak for themselves. It was a total look. Light cotton puffs were tucked under double layered vests and blazers with short-sleeves worn over long-sleeved tops. Mustard, gold, khaki, and black dominated the collection and continued the trend of Fall colors but shown in weightless, breathable fabrics that are more appropriate for the season. The only elements of the show that kept it from being truly great where the lackluster sunglasses, silly hats, and pantless presentation that would have given the show depth and range. However, those gold feathered pieces at the end were standout in their meticulous precision that makes you think the Prozena Schouler woman is an elegant warrior in all of her gold-dipped glory.
