FGI Emerging Designers Competition

November 22, 2010

Natallia Pilipenka

This was my favorite designer out of all the shows at the Bass Museum for the competition. She of course won the competition. So deserved.  I loved her aesthetic. I would love that chunky sweater with the cutouts on the arms & the cagey tunic dress from the 4th picture below. I took really crappy pictures on this day for some reason as you can see above. I know exactly what I did wrong too and I’d never do that now. Oh the growth. Luckily for me I had photographer Simon Soong to fall back on so I still get to share with you guys some of the looks from the show and the other designers. I colored the photos to match my style.

Bambina by NV

I didn’t think this collection wasn’t cohesive enough for me. I only want to talk about what I liked though so below you can see the 3 looks I liked. They were my standouts and were completely different from anything else she showed. If there’s more like the below 3 then I’m down. Can you tell I love harnesses and cutouts, toss in a little leather and it’s love.

I didn’t include Scarabello or Alfonso Couture. Both are not really my style and though there were 3 dresses from Scarbello that I liked only 1 photo is useable. 1 there’s nipple slip so no, the other in every frame the model is doing something unacceptable with her face (this is a constant with her) or her eyes are closed. She really lacks runway energy and it’s upsetting. Scarbello has a Fall Winter lookbook featuring the dresses I liked but it’s unavailable on their website, it’s only on their facebook and the quality is awful so I won’t post it here.  It’s so important to keep your sites as updated as possible, you never know who wants to use your images or talk about your brand. Alfonso Couture is simply not my style at all but I should say that they were last year’s winner.

YAY!

    “the model is doing something unacceptable with her face ”
    LMAO!

    True about the websites thing. They should already know that facebook greatly decreases picture quality.

    I’m glad she won :). I’m loving that dress on the far left in the 1st photo. I generally don’t like fringe-y shoulder embellishments, but I’m loving the sheerness and the straps.
