ISTANBUL FASHION WEEK RECAP
For the summer trends we know we have sheer fabrics, crazy, dizzying prints and bright yellow colour from many fashion shows we’ve seen in London Milan, New York and Paris fashion weeks.
Istanbul Fashion week was no less. Each designer have treated the trends with a different approach and with their signature designs.
Atil Kutoglu used pinks and shades with stripes and the pale green that we see in Europe a lot. Like the Akris show he used many stripes and prints in jumpsuits.
Ozlem Kaya approached the Spring Summer with a different taste. She used the sleek sheer chiffon in tones of pinkish grey. Gul Agis, the designer of Lug Von Siga possibly was one of the most intriguing due to the presentation location. It was a little wet and humid but certainly made the point. The presentation in the traditional Turkish bath got a lot of audience.
Arzu Kaprol, a.k.a. Studio Kaprol wouldn’t budge on her classic line of structure and geometry. She joined Jil Sander and Balenciaga in the use of fuller shapes.
While Tuvana Buyukcinar was using the printed long skirts in ikat, Gamze Saracoglu did what she knows best; mini skirts, a very provocative front slit in navy, bright yellow satin and black & white as a classic.
Istanbul Fashion Week is becoming better each year and expectations are going even further. Bloggers, fashion designers, fashion personas all over the world will raid through Istanbul for the fashion in the following year. That is of course our yearning.
