Timo Weiland’s collection this year was wearable to a fault.

The whole thing had a wonderful downward energy, not depressing, but heavy and solid. There is a tattered element, but not worn and not destroyed looking. With pinks, whites, blacks and brown, intermixed with vertical stripes, the whole thing feels a little reminiscent of the past century. One cannot ignore the statement wool beanie hats – thick and beautiful-paired with the straight hair and circular sunglasses. The vibe was clearly aimed at girls who want to look finished but effortless. The prints made an appearance, flowerlike in dark tones, and sparse. From the front row, I could see the cuts veered towards Celine-like minimalism, but just didn’t quite hit the mark. Particularly with the fur vest, it was a little too complicated. Overall, the collection was immediately recognizable and immediately wearable. Consider it lounge chic.

The show’s Lead Hair Stylist was Joseph DiMaggio, the Master Session Ambassador for Davines North America. He said, “I wanted to play off the comfortability of the collection and its ease of ‘coolness.’ When I saw the different types of headwear on the models, I decided to create a look that would go with the weather, not against it. This piecey, relaxed look exudes confidence with out looking over styled.”

 

Timo Weiland also continued his partnership with M∙A∙C Cosmetics this season to key the runway face of FW15. Romero Jennings worked with the team to conceptualize and create a make-up look evoking relaxed simplicity with natural tones and colors. Timo Weiland teamed up with Zoya to help with nail design this season. The polish selected for the Fall-Winter 2015 has a satin finish, eliminating the need to a base and top coat.
