Iodice and the Jet Set Woman

Brazilian designer Valdemar Iodice held his spring presentation at the Morgans Hotel yesterday. In this intimate setting, fashion people were able to touch and pet his clothing. While I was going through my walk through, two stylists were going through a rack exclaiming over items and saying they would be perfect for Ms.X to wear during fashion week. "This collection,"Iodice stated,"was designed to keep in mind the life of the jet set woman. My inspiration was classic and timeless sophistication."

Iodice designs clothing, shoes, and jewelry; in short a complete look, the only thing missing is a body. His palette ranged between soft earth tones- sand and sage with primary colors- red, navy and white. Soft suede and jersey silk were the main fabrics. If you're jetting off to Capri, these are the fabrics you'll need!

The way the clothing is draped, and the intricate detailing-note the beadwork highlighted-that was on the sleeve of a gossamer white silk dress, brings to mind designers like Norell and Adrian. Men who felt that every little detail as as important as the overall look. After all, the devil is in the details, and the eye delights on tiny treasures.
