Nicholas K Spring/Summer 2013 Collection “Soylent Green”

All I can say is for me...this collection was "Dessert Chic." Made me want to ride a camel and let the loose fabric blow in the wind haha. Last season Nicholas K was my very first runway show at Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. They will always hold a special place in my heart for that! The moment when something you dream of comes true, you can do nothing but smile. For Spring/Summer 2013, the sibling team Nicholas and Christopher Kunz drew inspiration from the dark futuristic 1973 New York City film, Soylent Green, that prophesized NYC in the year 2022. The designers known for their loose fitting and multi-layered aesthetic, will showcase a line up of women’s and men’s wear featuring breezy, bohemian silhouettes of creamy leathers, ultra soft cashmere, silk satin, and mesh paneling. A spectrum of black, wood brown, nude, stone grey with pops of rust, soy, and periwinkle hues evoke the sensual appeal of color, texture, emotional charge, and green revolution of the 70s. The brand has grown greatly since its beginning in 2003, first with the menswear line in 2005 and Nicholas and Christopher’s induction as members of the CFDA in 2009. They now sell the Nicholas K collection in over 120 stores worldwide. For the Spring/Summer 2013 season the team has also included a small line of women’s shoes.

The show featured hair by Nick Irwin for Catwalk by TIGI, make up by Janell Geason for Aveda, nails by Haven for Essie, men's shoes by Vintage Shoe Company and women's shoes by Nicholas K.
