Seeing Alon Livne’s Fall 2013 collection in person was, for lack of a better word, moving. Although the color palette did not deviate from black, Livne added different textures, beaded decals, and materials to set each look apart, as well as geometric cutouts and shiny black hardware that jutted out of the clean silhouettes of the clothes.
All of these different elements, as well as the star trek-like head pieces on each model, gave off the foreshadowing feeling that this will be the norm for glamorous and elegant clothing in the next fifty to one hundred years. Overall it was refreshing and a pleasant surprise to be able to view this collection.
