Tess Giberson S/s 2005

Barney's and ISA in Brooklyn are the only two that's listed in New York from her web site. She used to be carried at Seven but no longer apparently.

Well Faust,I'll admit myself,that despite how much I like this one,its not quite as stupendous as her previous Autumn collection. And her earlier collections(from 02-S/S 03)-looking at her work overall-were the best collections she ever did. Too bad those didn't get alot of attention.

Datura,you should check her web site out and look at her earlier works. Like the collection she did when she collborated with her husband,artist Jon Widman. Imagination galore in those. And the clothes were exceptionally beautiful and inspiring.

I love the second to last one you posted :heart: :heart:

I can sort of see the gaultier and lacriox refrenses, but I like her version much more

Personally i really really love the style and feeling of this collection, defiently one of the best of the season for me
 
Indeed-on everything you said.

Still,I think I like the last one better. There's something missing in this for some reason...not quite as esoteric as usual?

really i found this quite esoteric, may be more dreamy than esoteric?
 
Yes,that could be true. Although,normally she does tend to combine the two..

Perhaps,I'm just a sucker for that heavier,stiffer tinge....maybe a bit moodier,more melancholy side.
 
Tess' collection has been added to her web site!

And I completely change my mind after seeing these breathtaking images too and the feature on her in Paper. What a beauty of a collection when you see it much more clearly. I think alot of my initial feelings was based upon the fact that it was totally monochrome in scheme and in those catwalk images it just didn't appear as cohesive as these do. Of course,catwalk images rarely capture feeling of the clothing that well in the first place.

Also,Haidée Findlay-Levin did the styling for her once again. Love her!
 
thx scott...it does look beautiful... :flower: :heart:

that first patchwork image on the site is the image from the invite... ;) :D
 
You're welcome,Softie ;)

She is the best,if you ask me. Because looking at all her collections so far there's so much consistency and distinction in her work. And every one of them has been incredibly strong. Which is quite rare in NY,imo.

Ia gree

she is one of the only NY designers I find intresting
 
I think the reason for that too,is because there is something indefinitely authentic about her work.

There's an interesting feature on Tess in December's Vogue,btw. I guess,M-O-M,you were correct when you said that this Spring collection was the one for her. Success-wise and attention.

What's nice about the whole attention thing though,is that,like with many of the Belgian designers et al,I don't see it changing her personality at all. Her work process and her quiet persona just doesn't seem to have deterred or ever will.
 
i think tess's work is very personall, in the style as well as in the clothes them selves, the details liek the chrocheting and stiching.
 
what kind of prices are her clothes? a skirt for example - how much would that cost?
 
too much...a t shirt with some stitching is over $300...a skirt might be $500-$600...
far too much...but the fabics are lovely...

prices have just gone nutty...
