The Ohne Titel Show for Fall 2014 proposed a vision of a Strong and Sexy woman, Sure of Her Self, Her Body, and Her Taste in clothing. This wasn't a collection for Shy, Resigning woman that want to blend in with the everyday monotony. Alexa Adams and Flora Gill delivered and Sharply Concise collection that had plenty of Impact in the few pieces they showed. Keeping the Colours focused on Black, White, Cobalt Blue and Deep shades of Red from Oxblood to Bordeaux made sure that the message was conveyed Loud and Clear with little else to distract from it.
Textural play was a big theme with many surface treatments, Especially in the knit pieces, keeping things new looking and giving the eye something interesting to look at all around. Sometimes it overwhelmed a slight bit, But it truly was when the Gill and Adams kept things as unfussy as possible that they hit the Jackpot. A Zip jacket in Black with Bordeaux Leather accents at Exit No. 13 worn with some of the most Covetous Black pants this side of Helmut Lang, achieved Nirvana because there was absolutely nothing to Divert any attention from the Purity of the pieces!
Near the end though things devolved into some very haphazard looking evening pieces that looked unfortunately devoid of style, looking simply tacky and trivial. It was an unhappy end to a collection that found Gill and Adams in fighting form. All one was left with after this shabby ending was to say "Maybe Next Time!"
That's All.
Bye4Now!
