Images of Opening Ceremony’s Fall 2013 collection have just been released and if you’re like me, you’re like “haaaaay!” For fellow OC enthusiasts, a new collection is just a preview into what your closet is going to look like in a few months, so it’s exciting to say the least.
This season, the brand has taken its muse to Las Vegas, where “she explores the ever-sparkling City of Sin” (this, according to the press release) in luxe textures, eye catching graphic prints and even richer jewel tones of crimson, bordeaux, indigo, plum and crystal blue.
Admittedly, the collection takes a bit of inspiration from two recent collections—Christopher Kane Fall 2012 and Alexander Wang’s Fall 2013 debut at Balenciaga—but where Opening Ceremony Fall 2013 really breaks new ground at a contemporary level is its fabric and pattern experimentation. Bringing together furs, moiré wood-grain patterns, stretch lurex jersey, Mongolian shearling and velvet, the Fall 2013 collection breathes new life into fashion staples of late such as the motocross jacket and the recently-classic Galaxy print.
As for accessories and shoes, Opening Ceremony re-churns its covet factor anew with beaver-felted baseball caps, snap wristbands (snap wristbands!) and velvet purses. So…how many months till Fall 2013?
