Brasilian designer Alexandre Herchcovitch presented his Spring 2010 collection last night, which was also the same collection he presented back in June during São Paulo Fashion Week. I was intrigued back in June, but held off sharing an opinion hoping he'd show it here in New York, or at least some of the pieces — I got my wish! The football {not futebol/soccer} inspired collection had plenty of wearable pieces — from the uniformed style dresses, tight and sporty pants paired with multicoloured nylon tops, lace-trimmed dresses, color-blocked rubber dresses, and blouses that mimicked jerseys worn by football players. He closed the show with his infamous caged style dress and skirt which pushed the shape envelope and were a delight to see up close. Herchcovitch presented a show that took NYFW beyond sportswear and into a realm that intertwined art with wearable pieces. Another anticipated show that I thoroughly enjoyed.
