NYFW : PRABAL GURUNG RTW FALL 2015

Prabal Gurung's Fall 2015 collection was distinctly American in attitude but the color palette was serene and majestic-greys,whites..although a dash of color red is seen in between.I loved the dresses,jumpsuits and of course,the black suit in the end.The gowns are no doubt,red carpet worthy as can be expected.

      

Here's a review from Jessica Iredale of WWD -

 Prabal Gurung, mountain man? After divining his last two runway shows — two of his strongest — from the famous range of his native Nepal, Gurung cast his eye on the Adirondacks, citing in show notes their “majestic beauty, serene color palette,” etc. Upstate New York is also considerably closer to his current residence, geographically and emblematically. It yielded a suave collection that was distinctly American in attitude, with its sporty glamour and moments of minimalist homage to another national treasure, the house of Calvin Klein.

Solidifying an identity has been an ongoing challenge for Gurung. He didn’t fully achieve that here, but he continued with some of the good ideas of his past two collections — mainly the ease-of-statement winter pieces worn over something soft and light — reworking them within the context of modern town-and-country sportswear. The show opened with a beautiful dove gray wool duffel coat with a white fox trim over a wisp of an alabaster silk crepe slip with a fold-over slit. There were more examples of extravagant coats, such as incredible fur intarsias, over delicate little slips. The sturdy hand-knit Nepalese cashmere sweaters of last fall, cut slightly longer in the back, came in Fair Isle and graphic black-and-white color blocks, paired with mid length asymmetric pleated kilts. Done in soft shades of gray, ivory, black, navy and crimson, the palette was as elegant as the spare, graceful lines of embroidered tank dresses and long-sleeve gowns made sensual with backs that plunged into a V. Of all the aesthetic directions Gurung has auditioned in his career, the glamorous minimalist was a worthy pursuit.
