Bland Spring 2009 Collection
Posted by Aami on Sep 8, 2008
Fashion designer showing during New York Spring 2009 Fashion will cater to the Carrie Bradshaws or fashion buying public.
Some, like up-and-coming designer Teddy Willoughby of Bland, who will present his Spring 2009 collection at splashy downtown art gallery Deitch Projects Wednesday, Sept. 10, have a different customer in mind altogether.
“I’m into cool working girls who are doing things,” said Willoughby at his studio.In the midst of making final adjustments to his designs. “Art gallery girls, artists, movers and shakers.” Think Kim Basinger’s character in ’80s movie “9 1/2 weeks” - she plays a SoHo art dealer - strong, beautiful and edgy; women whose closets might be full of Japanese labels like Yohji Yamamoto or Comme des Garcons or Alaia and Balenciaga.
