Christian Audigier At The LA Fashion Week Spring 2008
Christian Audigier says {that the} theme of his Spring 2008 collection shown at LA’s Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week on Tuesday afternoon is “La Vie en Rose,” but a higher moniker might be “Trashy French Vamp,” or maybe “Flashdance on Acid,” based mostly on the styles he sent down the black-carpet-and-glitter runway.
The boys fared better than the women in the Audigier show; they principally wore his signature wildly patterned oversize hoodies, all embellished with the designer’s name and assorted different motifs, usually executed in glittery crystals, studding, and embroidery. Most were paired with jeans, encrusted with Audigier’s huge signature across the backside, once more tired glitter, sometimes paired with a big skull, other times with similar tattoo-galvanized motifs. There was a military bent to several of the boys’s styles, too; the first male model even wore a military beret and saluted the photographers at the top of the runway. Vests were big, too, and long, slouchy cutoff pants added a street gang vibe.
To form sure the ladies within the audience (together with Brandy, Bai Ling, and chart-topping singer Bettina) got a little eye candy, the designer sent a few male models out carrying nothing however a skimpy pair of camouflage underwear, then added a variation of hooded superhero capes worn over the underwear, unzipped for effect at runway’s end. One was but that skin show was nothing to what Christian Audigier presented on the women. There was the white micro-mini tee-shirt dress, worn over tan panties, garter belt, and sheer stockings ; the black bra, garter belt, and sheer stockings worn with a large-open olive-toned raincoat; skin-tight patterned gold leggings worn with a slouchy, off-the-shoulder patterned tee (shades of “Flashdance” and Eighties style there); and a black bra, paired with a black feather boa, and a see-through pair of tan knickers worn over black panties. Hooker chic, indeed, and the sort of streetwear that sends a working-woman message.
Audigier’s capper, a series of looks that combined utterly sheer tulle skirts in bright colors of pink, inexperienced and electrical blue displaying the panties and garters beneath, paired with hoodies and matching berets, are an evening look that won’t seemingly to make it to any Hollywood red carpets.
But as David Hasselhoff, who brought his teenage daughter Hayley to work out the collection, commented to Audigier when the show, “I liked it; the ladies looked great!” No word on whether he’ll let his girl show her Audigier underwear in public, however.
