New York Fashion Week Fall 2008 : Yigal Azrouël
Davina Rodriguez
The Yigal Azrouël collection was hauntingly beautiful. Using a palate of deeply rich and dark colors, Azrouel for 15 minutes had the audience looking pleased if not somewhat puzzled. There was this intentional disjointedness within the line that Azrouel stated was done for effect. Each piece, he surmised, was meant to stand alone. There was no doubting that the designer crafted and honed his art. He knew what he was going for and found it. If that seems somewhat nebulous it again, was intentionally so. Stand out, stand alone pieces from the collection include a light and free flowing dress embroidered with feathers, a set of dresses in asymmetrical shapes and a feathered dress that moved only through the material effect. If the collection looked rough around the edges, it again, was intentionally so, that gruff effect (and like the seasons before) was obvious to the point that it brilliantly made sense.
