Jason Wu Fashion Show, Spring 2013
Jun 04 2013 · Meanderings ·1
I thought I’d wrap up this week of posts on the Brizo Fashion Week event by featuring some of my favorite looks from the Jason Wu Fashion Show showcasing his Spring 2013 collection.
Here are this week’s Posh Picks (it really was very hard to choose just five!)…
Leather and lace was a new theme for Jason Wu with this collection. Fresh and provocative, an intriguing, and in this design, winning, combination.
Two picks in one! Once again, I love the use of lace and sheer fabric. The minimalist peplum on the poppy colored lace skirt adds interest and pop. The studded ankle strap shoes add to the edgy look and play foil to the softness of the fabrics. I love the silhouette and color on the far model and her hatbox pocketbook provides another hard edged contrast.
The tissue sheer polka dot fabric in this design made the mannequin-thin model appear to float down the runway. The capelet features cut-outs at the shoulders and the dress features leather harness strapping ~ another theme in the collection.
I absolutely love this dress! It features a beautiful combination of a nude colored beaded top and a tulle skirt over black tap pants. I love how the whole look comes together with the fresh make-up, bold lips and the model’s waved hair kept close to her head. Stunning!
Another sheer and beaded combination with harness accents, this dress was part of the finale collection. The sweeping sheer skirt and beaded top with silver circles is even more beautiful in person.
The parade of models at the end of the fashion show was a treat for the senses!
Finally, the designer himself, Jason Wu, came out on the runway to take a bow:

I think you’ll get a hint of how much I enjoyed the Jason Wu runway show when I show you this week’s petite oil painting…
