Dear Reader,
I am pleased to inform you that this is not spam. I am also not trying to sell you any fake vacations, time shares, computers (don't you already have one?) or oversea brides. I am however trying to sell you an idea. Young designers are where it's at. It's not like I have my own personal incentives promoting young designers or anything. Ok, I do. However, this is about two other young design teams that fused together last Wednesday night at the legendary Natsumi, a swanky bar and restaurant between Broadway and 8th. Included were drinks, a chance to be on one of MTV's many reality tv pilots (lots of youngish film crews) and most importantly new, fresh designs, made with love and quality. Sara Clair and Esther is a company producing surprisingly sophisticated designs for such a young business. The fabrics featured brocades and silks, and were trimmed with golds and silvers, giving a competitive edge, literally, to other garments. Eva's collection was equally sophisticated but had an air of playfulness in the detailing. I believe Eva said she was from Sweden, and the garments reflected her homeland. The main color was white, and the detailing was in in red ribbon, and other one-of-a-kind patterns. Small detailing on the bottoms of tops, like tiny box pleats, gave this collection a unified feel. Look out Versace. These girls may be the new kids on the block, but they are winning over every block in Manhattan with more speed, love, and determination than taxi drivers on Broadway.
