Fashion in Jamaica and the region exists, much to my annoyance, almost outside of an international aesthetic. It's my desire, then, to build a bridge between what is innately cultural, and the international industry, all the while highlighting trends and shifts within both spheres.

BCBG Max Azria Spring 2012
So for BCBG Max Azria's spring 2012 collection today during New York Fashion Week, it really was just one look (colour blocking) alternated about 30 times. Asymmetrical handkerchief hems with long fan-like pleats in light, airy fabrics were plentiful as were strong prints that punctuated soft A-line silhouettes. The mood was bright and easy; the fabrics, weightless while maintaining a sense of structure.
A palette of bold brights with neutral accents (navy, and grey in particular) was juxtaposed with embroidery and tribal prints making it a very retro, but still very fresh output.

BCBG Max Azria Fall/Winter 2011
For New York Fashion Week, designers Max and Lubov Azria debuted a collection full of an understated 70s chicness yesterday at Lincoln Center. It was a collection of easy one piece numbers cleverly constructed with geometric shapes that seemed to say one thing- we're through with minimalism.
Models walked slowly, showcasing gorgeous color-blocked turtlenecks, dresses and skirts.Hemlines were long, while taupe, chalk, and camel colors made billowing shapes through geometric patterns.
The simplicity of it all was falsely implied by light turtleneck bases, and printed fabrics with the most compelling of the looks being a camel-colored cape with fox fur collar. The carrot colored, v-neck dress was the best of a feminine warmth that was present throughout the collection.

BCBG Max Azria Spring/Summer 2011
Keeping with his usual billowing silhouette, Azria presented a series of Spring 2011 dresses in grays, mustard, rose and black, many involving a sheer overlay this morning.
As with every BCBG collection, designer Max Azria creates a sexy, youthful look. The staple of this collection was the mini-dress.
There were a few embellishments here and there, but Azria kept the looks mainly simple while textures wer keep loose and feminine, dominated by silks and crepes.
