Nicholai by Nicky Hilton S/S 08 NYC

[anglinggg]

I'm reading some over dramatic comments. I think we shouldn't compare her to the legends of fashion. Its just fashion, come on... I think these clothes will sell and thats what really matters.

I actually like the collection.

Oh and what Oceaneyes posted above is great.

the collection isnt that bad.. its much better than gwen stefani's lamb collection...

i guess nikki really likes fashion... whether she's an amateur far away from professional... i guess she enjoys fashion.....

i wonder what people would say if there was no label attached... maybe less biased comments? who knows....

 

[daniellat]

she may design cloths but she is NOT a designer, an artist...her clothes may sell and may be nice, but theyre things weve seen already, nothing new. And LAMB may be a brand for a different target but it has GREAT collections, part from the taste of many people but it brings something new to the table, of course gwen is not a designer, its just her name on the brand but she works with people who knows about fashion and fashion is not just clothes...

I really like this line. I want!

It's not that bad but I think she could've done much better with all the resources, support and money she's got.

I love when celebs give their lines wannabe pretentious names trying to give their some credibility. Nicholai? Whats that about. It's not trash but honestly completely irrelevant.

well here's a link to an interview with her about her line :

After see the entire collection I think I would honestly wear 80% of it. I think its rather cute

Nicholai is actually her real name...Nicky is a short version..
This is actually really funny, because in Russian ( and it is a russian name) it is man's name. I guess her parents didn't bother to find that out

 

[seanutbutter]

^ There was no point in finding out, though, since they're not Russian.

I actually wonder this about most collections, especially the "big" designers like Chanel and Balenciaga. I find that most people have one opinion and stick with it, no matter if the clothes are nice or not.

I love this dress^

[riva bella]

true, there's no real coherence, no central idea, it's just "nice". it kind of gives me a mango-esque feeling for some reason? -> all these different styles i guess

i must say i do like the bandeau bikini top

but i wonder to what extent she actually really designs this? is she the one drawing? i guess she just pops out ideas and other people make it into something concrete, right?

 

[Anais_L]

some pieces are ok, very bad styling, the dress Nicky is wearing is simply ugly and does not do her an favours, the entire collection is very UNNICKY.

 

[serena775]

It's not terrible, but's not great either.

 

[FABY]

Did she really designed the clothes?

B)

Nothing great in this collection

 

[Mota3089]

She was a FIT student. So I'm a summing she knew one or two things.

AMY WINEHOUSE HAIR! EWWW!!!

There are a couple of pieces here that I do like but the whole seems so random. I think, when seeing a fashion collection, I expect to see similar fabrics or shapes in clothing but it all seems like a grab bag here. There's no cohesiveness.

But I give Nicky props for the cast. A+ indeed

Give it a few collections and more experience, I think Nicky will be okay in the industry. If not, she always has dad's money to fall back on.

It's not terrible, but's not great either.

I have to agree, nothing special, doesn't bad, but for me some kind of boring and without any own ideas.
