Michael van der Ham Spring 2013 Runway Review

Asymmetry was achieved sometimes through the cut and shape of a hem or neckline, sometimes through the use of the prints themselves. Overall there were many soft, floaty, ladylike shapes – 50s garden skirts and palazzo pants. 

The prints were either very head-to-to “looks” or split up into separates that seemed dashed together from different outfits, but still with a put-together effect. Print was used as a structural element unto itself, more than was seen on other runways. There was a structured, subdued vibe despite the statement-making graphics. That’s not to say the less fashion-forward person on the street wouldn’t do a double take if they saw one of these looks walking by.
