Having used iconic American designers as muse and inpiration fom the whole collection, Wang made sure to depict America as what it is a huge melting pot of cultures and races, which was replicated to be the cast of models used in the show. 

Brazilian magnate and international influencer Camila Coelho, a woman I call a role model; just announced her debut as a designer and brand today. Her new fashion brand, called Camila Coelho Collection is due to launch June 19 with exclusive rights to the reputable clothing website Revolve.

As the trend has been with previous resort/ cruise 2020 shows, the top/ most famous ones have had a setting of traveling whether that traveling is considered time traveling as we saw in the Chanel resort 2020 show, or like we experienced in the Louis Vuitton show, also physical travel. During their show we were taken to the retro - vintage TWA Terminal Hotel, one which looks like we’ve stepped into a photographic hotel form the 1950’s - 1960’s. For a bit of history, this terminal closed almost 20 years ago, but it still looms large in the public imagination; this week, after a multiyear renovation, it will reopen as a hotel, complete with 500-plus rooms and an infinity pool.

For this collection, Ghesquière, mentioned that he wanted this collection to “Get him back to that feeling he got when he first came to New York”. As mentioned in Vogue, he was bowled over by the city’s Art Deco landmarks, bright lights, and famous round-the-clock energy. We got to experience increadibly unique pieces specially the juxtaposition of amazing contrasts with fabrics within a same piece, we saw, various pieces, where you saw two to even three patterns and textiles used as layers, in blazers and dresses.


The show in comparison, had a lot of throwbacks to the late 80’s early 90’s trends, like heavy shoulder pads, sequined verticals lines, and styles, baggy elastic hem trousers, and structured styles, specially blazers. Even these styles are highly inspired in this era, we saw the juxtaposition of both modern colors and designs mixed with vintage Elizabethian silhouettes.  We see this in various suits and in mixed with leather. Other than the venue being vintage in style, we also saw this vintage air in the models in the runways, which all rocked very representative hairstyles and make up from this era. Most colors we saw in this show, were darker hues, from deep mustards, to blues, greens, and black. Most of these pieces would serve as increadible night out/ pieces for a night out statement pieces, bet this will cause havoc among its most loyal clientele.
We saw this “New Yorkesque” inspiration as he used Wall Street pinstripes for pantsuits, as we can imagine with impeccable tailoring, shirtdresses, mixed with, a decorated, flamboyant collection, dedicated to resurrecting the disappearing art of dressing up and at the same time taking us through different styles all of which can be fit for any of New York’s metropolitan neighborhoods, not to mention appealing, its loyal clientele. 


This show is one to remember in particular much of its unique textile combinations took the crowd to a flash back of the late 80’s and early 90’s featuring boxy and wide shoulders and cliched waists. Main designs featured voluptuous panne velvet draped over the shoulders of going-out tops, tiny glitzy bustiers were studded with crystals, and the famous Chrysler Building bas-relief was picked out in geometric metallic embroideries on a zip-front jacket, as well as on jacquards, a favorite of the crowd. As a foreigner,” Ghesquière said, “I’m not afraid of the clichés.” As a matter of that, we saw layered into the mix were souvenir jackets with skyline embroideries and nods to Gotham superheroes, like Catwoman-ish skullcaps.

What you’re about to read, is a huge triumph, we haven’t heard much of, specially the historical importance of it. You might be wondering, what is this accomplishment Rihanna is doing that’s never been done, she is bringing more inclusivity and not only bending gender rules, but race and age rules, in the next paragraphs we can go more into this history making moment in fashion.

This has been a well kept secret for the past year, yes, a lot of us in the fashion industry have heard bits about it specially after the Fenty Lingerie launch, but today Rihanna’s brand Fenty has made splashes all over social media and the internet in the launch of the first Fenty collection in collaboration with historical house LVMH. Why, you might be asking yourself into why I mentioned this was a history making moment.... well ladies and gents, Rihanna worked her way to be the first black woman to be the head (both CEO and Creative Director) of an LVMH brand also, managed to bring her brand ne’er LVMH which last brand introduced was Christian Lacroix in 1987.
Harnessing the power of holding all of these prestigious careers, Rihanna is also one of the muses for her clothing line, having a massive following is the key of Fenty’s success and much of her success deals with being true to herself in all matters of her career.
Having herself as the muse for her company, she knows her target demographic to the T. Rihanna acknowledges, she is a trend setter thus, we see much of her signature style in a lot of pieces in her collection, not to mention, colors that fit and enhance a big range of skin tones.
She knows when and how to break the rules to make her outfits memorable ones and always having a signature that we know is hers oversized yet always with a sillouhette that sparks attention to curiosity, this have made her a global style icon and a huge source for inspiration.
As being unique and different is part of her brand, you wont be expecting a traditional runway show for this one, since it’s after all a surprise collection, something she did do as expected is that she is competing on both quality and prices with not only LVMH brand but with the fashion world.

So, you might be asking yourself what to expect from this collection, not only are the pieces previewed in this page but, the consumer will expect the alternative from choosing from sizes 0 - 16 yes, when she launched this, she wanted to make sure that much like her lingerie collection this also, appeals to mostly everyone, having huge inclusivity in its sizes, designs and feminine silhouettes. This collection features; futuristic shades, fashion forwards classics and even footwear, most of these pieces will stricke a chord with masses of fans when the collection goes on line in only a few days in May 29. I forgot to mention that also, most pieces in this collection can be used in various ways; oversized pieces can be are ended neutral as they fit oversized and. In some pieces you have the variety of ways to put them you can alter pieces various ways, especially the outer wear. I also, expect men to wear some pieces old shades as well.
