Prabal Gurung Fall/Winter 2014 at New York Fashion Week

WTFSG-prabal-gurung-fall-winter-new-york-fashion-week-2014-1

The picturesque landscapes of Nepalese tribeswomen strutting pass massive brass gongs decorate Prabal Gurung’s Fall 2014 runway; and are about as far removed from Anna Wintour’s fur trench coats as you can get. Gurung has sealed his reputation as one who designs consistent, intimate concepts for the discerning woman. What he does is high-concept fashion, but not avant-garde numbers that alienates the everyday women.

For Fall, Gurung revisits his roots once again, pushing beyond tradition whilst distilling essences into a stirring plethora of rustic pashminas and knitwear. He solemnly conjures a moodboard of tactile plates, collapsing with drapes and tapestries that result in an almost monastic sensibility. Peekaboo panels: cutouts match-made with chiffon turtlenecks strung together something once revered and lurid.

There were pieces here that sprouted pockets of tweed and organza – a microcosm terra-formed in the Gurung fashion terrain. Gurung has shown us an astute maturity in sculpting the most discreet and meditative works this season. And this is his serene oasis in his personal Shangri-La.
