Tadashi Shoji Presents Spring/Summer 2016 Collection

by Vivian Chen September 12, 2015
by Vivian Chen September 12, 2015 0 comment

Known for his red carpet glamour and evening showstoppers, the designer pivots his view for spring.

The gowns are presented in soft pastel shades with strategically placed floral embroidery. The dresses floated down the runway making the models look like ethereal woodland fairies. Tadashi Shoji drew his inspiration from his roots, Japan, which is evident in the embroidery of the gowns. Abundant flowers that bloom every spring in Japan such as cherry blossoms, peonies, and irises littered across the collection.

For spring 2016, the designer stuck to simple and classic silhouettes so the embellishments can speak for themselves. Classic princess and shift silhouettes are adorned with delicate lace embroidery in the form of flowers and branches placed in strategic places to emphasize the feminine form. Although the silhouettes lean towards evening, the way the fabrics and designs are placed allow it to be dressed up or down simply by changing shoes. Shoji has made the collection more wearable by styling all the models with flat, casual T-strap sandals, a direction that he is not known to take. Most of his dresses featured sheer areas to show off the legs, arms and midriffs, but still keeping the private bits covered. He wanted to take a more modest route for the naked trend that Rihanna, Beyonce, and Kim Kardashian have been debuting on the red carpet. The appliques artfully cover the chest area, as well as the nether regions in a beautiful manner. Extending branches with blooming blossoms and buds allow the slightest peek of the skin between flowers, giving the gowns a sultry look while not being too revealing.

Shoji balanced the collection perfectly this season with Easter egg colors as well as covering ground between elegant and casual. He kept up with current trends while tailoring them towards his aesthetic and tastefully debuting his own take on the latest red carpet trends.

THE LOOK:

Cutler/Redken Salon invited us backstage before the show to see the Hair come alive:

Basically Tadashi wanted something a lot prettier and simple this season as opposed to seasons previous. It’s a light airy blow dry, smooth, very polished. All the girls have a beautiful perfect center part that we created by using Redken Guts 10 Spray Foam, blow dried it, round brushed it, worked the hair really smooth and built a lot of body. So when they walk down the runway its more whimsical and its a lot more airy.

Nails:

The nail look is an unfortunate accident kind of manicure, the laquer is applied to the nail in a way that looks like you’ve been painting the house, or painting a picture, and the excess paint got on the nails. So it’s been applied with a brush called the ombre brush, it gives you a very inconsistent texture, it’s really broken up kind of texture and I used a white shade to do that. I just did a streak across the nails. I did this kind of jagged kind of paint streak across the nail, and I layered it with a lilac and a baby lilac so that they would really contrast well. Then finish with a super shiny top coat. Nails sponsored by Butter London.

MAC Cosmetics did the make up. Check out the Key Products used below:
