describe your fall/winter 2013 collection and the trends you have focused on.For Fall, I thought a lot about traditional men’s kaftans. I did research on the gimp trimming and scroll work, which are customary in some places. I conjured up a worldly man who likes to wear these Kaftans under his business suits. The juxtaposition of pinstripe meeting handwork gives me a kick. From there, it spun off into more feminine paired down versions on that theme.

describe the type of woman that wears your designs.Shamask has a devoted following of women who admire the precision and flow of its clothing and its cerebral sense of drape and scale. (Trendies do not wear Shamask.) She likes the architect’s reverence for geometric shapes without letting structural gambits hinder radial, free movement.

from where do you draw inspiration?I have collaborated with some of the top choreographers of our time, making dancer costumes for both Lucinda Childs and Mikhail Baryshnikov.

designer spotlightmoda manhattan

describe the type of woman that wears your designs.The Bradamant woman is driven. She’s passionate about living her life fully and I’m passionate about enabling that. She’s certainly busy; whether she’s busy building her career, traveling, or creating a family. She is particular about her wardrobe choices but also limited for time. She needs snappy solutions that work with her lifestyle and make her look and feel good.

what direction do you see women’s fashion moving in for the upcoming seasons?I’m excited by the new fabric experimentations which keep on coming. I think there’s a lot to be explored in terms of making higher fashion items that offer more easy care performance.

if you could dress a celebrity, who would it be and why?I’d love the opportunity to dress Sarah Jessica Parker. She is a role model by being a working mother who gracefully balances style with practicality.

what would people be surprised to know about you?I rearrange furniture somewhat compulsively.

from where do you draw inspiration?My inspiration radar is always on. I live in Philly but I grew up in London and the Middle East, so my memory box is always triggering some kind of cultural mash up. The Victoria and Albert Museum, Middle Eastern market places and the armory at the Philadelphia Museum of Art are all favorite haunts. Sometimes though, I just get pumped by a scene in a play or a movie - it’s usually something historical that gets my blood pumping.

what would people be surprised to know about you?I was trained as an architect, worked as a fashion illustrator for English newspapers, studied stage design and painted.

how would you define your collection?It stands away from the body and creates an inner world of space for the woman who wears it. Contours seem to have been softly blown into place; the ensemble’s serene form and volume are achieved with few pattern pieces and fewer seams. The silhouette is dramatic without being theatrical.

what do you consider to be the world’s best fashion city for women and why?New York because there is a sophisticated relaxed approach to dressing. Women can wear excesses with ease. �

Jitni

Cynthia ostroff | owner | www.Jitni.CoM | booth 320

what’s your favorite part about conceptualizing a new design?I love most everything about conceptualizing a new design! Starting with brainstorming ideas for my scarves, working directly with the textiles I’ll use, and refining an idea until it’s ready to be made. I really enjoy the process of the design and seeing my products come to life.

from where do you draw inspiration?I find traveling has influenced my work extensively. Since I am such a visual person, traveling abroad and experiencing colorful landscapes and far-off locales has been amazing. Exploring has also taught me that this same astonishing beauty

MarJorie renner | designer | www.faCebook.CoM/MarJorierennerparis | booth 221

what’s your favorite part about conceptualizing a new design?Imagination keeps me focused and inspired but first I conceptualize by a theme, a story and a purpose. With this in mind, I start to create. My favorite part of creation is when it is followed by a “dream” that finishes the touches.

can be found in your own backyard. Photography and black-and-white films are also places where I draw inspiration. The idea that you can resonate with an audience using such simplicity and nostalgia is fascinating to me and something I try to incorporate into my own work.

how do you personally stay up-to-date with fashion?I study trend forecasts as much as possible.

what do you think will draw retailers to your collection this upcoming season?I’m not shy about using color. I love color! I do have my fair share of monotone days and there are times when neutrals are more appropriate, but I think a colorful piece of jewelry or a scarf can be a total conversation starter.

who or what has been your greatest fashion influence?Modern women with an edge such as Scarlett Johansson, Anne Hathaway and Natalie Portman. Also, beautiful places; I’ve traveled a lot but I have to say that San Francisco remains the most influential city for me. It’s one of those unique cities that’s buzzing with urban energy but also has spaces of spectacular natural beauty. I feel as if these are the things that really define what Jitni is today.

from where do you draw inspiration?I find elements that may seem ordinary and combine the special aspects in unique ways to bring out their best attributes.

how do you personally stay up-to-date with fashion?I believe fashion is a state of mind and each individual’s style is their own fashion statement. Research and interaction with those “in the know” is my way to stay up-to-date with fashion.

what do you think will draw retailers to your collection this upcoming season?My collection is unique in the manner that the elements are natural and the aesthetic is classic with a modern touch. It’s functional and caters to women of the new world. Most of all though, my works are a point of conversation.

who or what has been your greatest fashion influence?Audrey Hepburn, Ingrid Bergman, Coco Chanel, and Princess Kate Middleton in the present generation are fashion influences of mine. When it comes to designers, my inspirations are Yves Saint Laurent, Alexander Mcqueen, Chanel, Fendi, Prada and Judith Leiber.

describe your immediate fall/winter preview 2013 Collection.Booties continue to be everyday wear for the BC girl and we want to give her many ways to incorporate this versatile footwear style into her wardrobe. We’re seeing them in every area of trend; from mod inspired Beatle booties to Western embroidered pull-ons.

how do you go about deciding which trends are important for the season?It’s crucial to have a good understanding of your consumer and we do that by continually shopping and staying current on what’s happening in the market. After shopping the market, we try to tap into our consumer and make sure we follow trends that are only relevant to BC girls. We also communicate with them as much as possible through social media in order to better understand the direction and world they live and shop in.

what is one “must-have” item from this collection?Flat oxfords are our must-have because they are an option that is more substantial than ballerina flats. They are also a great way to incorporate the edgy menswear inspired look that is making huge waves in the fashion trend space.

what is your personal fashion philosophy?Dress for your mood and dress for the kind of day you want to have. Numerous times after I’ve left the house my outfit wasn’t quite right for the location, or my shoes were uncomfortable and it greatly affected my mood and outlook for the day. It’s a great thing when you feel comfortable with yourself on the inside and out.

what three items are essential to you during market week?Three essential items during market week are water to keep hydrated, red lipstick to reapply whenever necessary and comfortable shoes.

if you could dress a celebrity who you feel fits your product image, who would it be and why?Emma Roberts because she has a great sense of herself with a youthful quirk that epitomizes the essence of who the BC girl is.

isaaC avrani | owner/MerChandiser | www.bianCoJeans.CoM | booth 849

describe your immediate fall/winter preview 2013 Collection.Our collection consists of funky yet timeless staple pieces.

what is one “must-have” item from this collection?A must-have is our coated wax denim. They fit beautifully and look like leather.

how do you go about deciding which trends are important for the season?We keep our eyes on the streets of New York City. WGSN and Style Sight also help us when deciding on trends.

what is your brand doing to address the growing importance ofsocial media and how do you feel it will impact your business?Social media has been nothing but beneficial for us. We are on both Twitter and Facebook.

if you could dress a celebrity who you feel fits your product image, who would it be and why?Our dream celebrity to dress would be Sarah Jessica Parker. She’s a style icon.

what is your personal fashion philosophy?“Fashions fade, style is eternal.”

what three items are essential to you during market week?My iPhone, Gmail, and coffee are essential to me during market week!
