    Uno de los desfiles mas aclamados y esperados en Dominicana Moda fue el del disenador Jose Jhan. Temprano en el día abrió los shows con una inusual pasarela en tablones de madera. Alli, se presento “Blue Dandy” coleccion para la temporada primavera verano 2017. El color azul fue el protagonista de la pasarela, unido al fresco blanco y al vivo anaranjado. 

    “El azul es fuente de energía en mi vida y mundo creativo. Me siento lleno de vida, fuerza y seguridad cuando lo utilizo, me siento que estuviera caminando en las nubes y al caer de ellas voy directo al mar azul de nuestras playas”, comentó el diseñador. “Esta nueva propuesta nos invita a la libertad, a disfrutar de la brisa, el mar, el cielo y a ver la vida con sus matices de azules llenos de felicidad, paz y alegría”, añadió.

    El desfile de “Blue Dandy”, cuyos fondos fueron donados a la Fundación Aprendiendo A Vivir, estuvo compuesto por 168 piezas en total, dirigidas a un hombre más adulto, empresario, amante de la libertad y de los días de ocio fuera de la ciudad. Un hombre bastante perfeccionista, con años de experiencias y que sabe vivir el día a día al máximo.

    Dentro de esta propuesta, fuimos testigos de la primera colección de camisas firmadas como “Mondino by José Jhan”, de la mano de la cadena de tiendas por departamentos Jumbo, y la línea de “Boat Shoes”, de la marca Quvel, diseñados en exclusiva para la ocasión. Además, una selección de trajes de baños realizados en conjunto con la diseñadora Carolina Sosías, los lentes de sol de Fufu Lala y las monturas oftálmicas más una colección de corbatines por Silvino Land y por último la colaboración de la marca dominicana de accesorios y correas para caballeros, Navy Crew, con una propuesta muy ingeniosa pensada y conceptualizada para “Blue Dandy”.

    576530216-450404400

    South Beach was truly HAHt-As-Hell as the brand officially kicked off the weekend, drawing celebrities, tastemakers, major media and buyers to SWIMMIAMI’s LYCRA Swim Salon at the W Hotel & Residences. HAH | Hot-As-Hell launched just last season and the 2017 runway collection, ‘Le Jardin de HAH’ proves the trailblazer in eco-conscious swimwear is nothing but booming.

    Ballerinas, moms and kids, oh my! The show kicked off with an unreal performance of Fever by Caroline Vreeland and kept the surprises coming for the entire show. Hot-As-Hell expanded from swim, lingerie and beach lifestyle apparel into childrenswear, maternity and bridal dubbing the new children’s wear line, Hot-as-Halo.. Dainty pastel lace contrasted by radiant sunshine tones floated along the runway to the sounds of Beyonce’s Lemondade poetry.

    HAH’s Spring 2017 collection was inspired by the origins of natural beauty – mother earth. Le Jardin de HAH is symbolic of the brand’s roots in natural, ethical product for women. This is seen and felt across the entire collection – from a rich color palette inspired by the sun and the sky to intricate original prints, hand drawn and digitally printed. This season’s print story highlights the dichotomy of beauty vs. the challenges inherent in nature.

    Crowd favorite model, Sam Blacky’s personality shined through as she flipped the bird in true Hot-As-Hell fashion. Cheeky high-waisted bottoms and reversible one-pieces stole the show. Vintage recycled Adidas bombers covered in custom patches by LA tattoo artist, dirtyneedle, embodied the brand’s sustainability initiatives. Contrasted by black oriental prints, delicate lace accents highlighted models, moms, children and expecting mothers beautiful curves of all kinds.

    The message here is that we are in control of whether lightness or darkness ultimately prevails. Through eco-friendly design and manufacture HAH on the side of light, and proves it’s never too late to #startsomewhere.
