Fashion label BCBGMAXAZRIA showcased their fall 2013 collection at Mercedes-Benz fashion week on Thursday. The new line was all fur and leather. ABC News described the new line as giving off a “nomadic, bohemian vibe”. Last year BCBGMAZAZRIA’s fashion line was filled with geometric shapes and bright hues but this year the fall collection is mostly composed of black and blue mixed with neutral tones.
The inspiration for the new line came to designer Lubov Azria after a trip to Istanbul. Istanbul's architecture and the clothing style of Gypsies inspired her to create this year’s fashion line.
Models walked the runway wearing a combination of layers such as long skirts over leather trousers, sheered fur and oversized coats with big hoods and collars. There was also a variety of fur and cashmere vests, fur coats, gypsy prints and patterned fur. The line definitely displayed a feeling of warmth and comfort.
Actress Sami Gayle from the CBS series Blue Bloods told FOX 411 that she enjoys the brand because of its diversity and that many of the styles can be worn both day and night. She also stated, “The clothes are very flirty and sophisticated. I love them”.
According to ABC News, fashion designer Max Azria commented on the new line backstage at the event by stating, “It sounds a little crazy, but it's also a little bit hippie. It's different than what we’ve been doing”. He also stated when asked about the change from last year, “My wife likes it all. She likes the colors, the prints, the textures. She likes to see a mélange.”
