Label Love: Gaspard Yurkievich Showcases Avant-Garde Classics

imageWho knew something as simple as a classic sheath dress or oversized tee could be made to look so unique and interesting? Gaspard Yurkievich, first known for his eclectic menswear, puts an avant-garde spin on would-be simple basics and classic garments. His new S/S 2010 collection showcases a collection of dresses, tops, pants and skirts that are on the verge of a classic silhouette, only to take a surprising turn in style detail or shape. Silky wovens of varying weights are presented in golden mustard, darkest navy, black, white and a blue and beige floral motif, as well as a smoky, cloudy grey pattern. Asymmetrical hems, flowing fabrics and emphasized shoulders define this breezy Ready-to-Wear collection of pieces and are made even more interesting when styled with layered knee-high socks and heeled sandals of mismatched colors. Blouses are sheer and embellished with mini ruffles and pleats, while many separates classic and stay classic and structured. Truly unique, but still completely wearable, Gaspard Yurkievich delivers and stays true to his personal aesthetic and is truly one-of-a-kind.
