CPM is not only a great trade fair for processionals of fashion industry but also a place where one of the best contests for designers is held. They say the hardest piece of clothes to construct is a coat. That is exactly the theme of the collections from designers who are willing to try their luck with ProFashion Masters. I loved the collections and approach there. Each showed the unique face of the designer and I could totally see how they are not willing follow the paths and rules looking for their own answers. I was very much impressed with quality of work (most looked amazing on models no matter how much they moved). One of collections was made by the digital designer who made her digiatal works real. It was hyper impressive, no wonder she won the artistic part (first photo below). While other vibrant collection won the seller's competition.
We were not only shown the collections by the contests so it was not only the finals for us. We were presented with collections from 3 mentors (each showed 5 coats, similarly to the contestants) but with their twists. These are actual models you can buy. Also there was a collection from former two times winner who not only showed her her coat collection but presented the collaboration with famous elderly embroidery maker Yuliya Aleshicheva (here is her Instagram account)
The day the finals were held was busy and packed up for me. I didn't really feel like dressing up and being creative, in fact I didn't feel like leaving home at all (yes, I enjoyed the show, thanks for asking, I was just tired and, no, I couldn't skip it because of my work). I went with simple formula of monochrome neutral base and one vivid detail. This time I wore simple black shirt and pants, throwing some heels and a big bag to fit my stuff in there. I added some pearls to feel a little more fancy too. I don't know if I like this outfit or not. I think it looks good but definitely lacks something.

ReplyDeleteThey seem to have some bright colours featurd there. It would work well for spring I'm sure. Sorry to hear you were tired. It's hard when you have no choice to go somewhere due to it being for work.

ReplyDeleteNot being in the fashion world, I wouldn't have thought about the construction of different pieces. But, it makes sense that the coat would be difficult. There are so many different and fun styles here!

ReplyDeleteI love winter fashion! That pink jacket with the squares is stunning!

ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the red jacket collection in the first few pictures. They are gorgeous. Sometimes when you're tired and not feeling going out, comfortable is the way to go, and you still look amazing doing it! I think pearls are one of the most simplistic yet stunning ways to dress up any outfit and compliment it well.
ReplyDeleteI love your long cardigan. I wish I was a little taller so I could pull off the long cardigans.
ReplyDeleteI love your cardigan. It looks really comfy and warm. The vibrant fashion is super cool too.
