As I received my invitaton from Sandy Foley (aka Cameo Girl), Fashion Artist, Designer, and owner of Flair Designs LLC, I knew I couldn't miss the opportunity. After all, some of Sandy's
own hand picked models from My Elite Models of NYC will be featured wearing Adolfo Sanchez's Spring/Summer 2014 collection. If you have never heard of Adolfo Sanchez, well, you should. Although still relatively new in the fashion
world, having started in 2006 by launching his ready-to-wear line, he has been featured in most fashion shows around the world from Paris, Los Angeles, and New York, as well as having been given charge of Queen Grace, an elegant fashion line for plus size women.
He continues to come out with new ideas and
this year's show is no exception. "People are really intrigued by what the
whole concept behind it is, because there are a lot of molded pieces up there,
as I call it. And people are trying to figure out what I mean by that." In an
exclusive interview with Cameo Girl TV's Spokesmodel, Tara-Jean Vitale, he went
on to explain what his concept was, "Basically, I wanted to manipulate the
fabric. I love playing with fabric, and turning them into things they're not.
I took chiffon, I took silk organza, and I dipped them into a mix of solutions,
hues, and different chemicals that I played with until I found the right recipe.
I then took a form and molded it onto the form, and let it settle overnight.
It essentially became like a shell. We then took the shell off the form and
hand painted it in different shades of metal, so it looks like armor."
The pieces the models wore, were quite elaborate and does grab ones attention.
He went to explain one of them, "One of the pieces specifically is a bustier,
but the shoulder is all molded. It looks like metal, but it's actually silk
organza...it's a way to show people what I can really do. I wanted to show
something that was powerful." Well, they were quite powerful, and the
creativity came out like no other in the pieces the twelve models adorned that
night. It didn't stop there, though. Something else that was unique, was the
show itself. To emphasize Adolfo's powerful creativity right from the start of
the show, all the models walked in a line through the midst of the crowd wearing
Stevie Boi's shades (Cameo Girl TV had the opportunity to interview him as well
that night) and Obi Cymatica shoes, onto a two-tiered stage where they stood
gazing into the audience while making different poses like manequins in a store
window.
He went on to say that he will be launching a shoe line in November, and has future plans for accessories and bags. Being from Los Angeles with Hollywood in his back yard, coming to New York twice a year for an entire
month particularly for the fashion shows, having dressed Kesha, Fergie, Skylar
Grey, and many different celebrities and artists, it's no wonder Adolfo Sanchez
continues to find the energy, inspiration, and creativity.
