Hervé Léger mesmerized audiences with subtle yet sexy zippered creations for “Hervé Léger by Max Azria” collection for Spirng-Summer 2014 at New York Fashion Week. Inspired by the modern woman, designer Hervé Léger stated, “She is a very aggressive and sexual woman who wants to be the one. And she just has to wear Hervé Léger to be herself and she will be number one.”
His muse ran rampant down the runway, featuring skin-tight bandage dresses, corset belts and sensual swimsuits in time for summer. Too cute to pass up, a retro, all-white swimsuit featured a mesh bandeau and high waist shorts, complete with alternating rows of gold zippers and peplum detailing.
A black and white monokini with asymmetrical zippers looked positively irresistible, featuring low cut-out details on the back. Staying true to a strong and neutral color palette, the design team opted for black, grey and white colors, with occasional splashes of deep blue.
Zippers and graphic prints dominated on the runway, with the label’s husband-and-wife design team, Max and Lubov Azria experimenting with varying hemlines. The unique facet of using zippers allows for spontaneity and play, zipping and unzipping creates different lengths and volume depending on the look. Emphasizing the waist, structured corset belts featured 3 dimensional, wavy rows of zippers, sealing the deal on several knockout outfits.
Never afraid to push the envelope, several form-fitting bandage dresses featured every possible combination of zippers imaginable. An optical, black and white printed dress was accessorized with a fitted corset belt, looking sophisticated with ankle strap heels and demure, full length sleeves.
Another luxe, elegant option featured an all white look with unzipped zippers at the chest and a tan corset belt at the waist. A little sexy, a little chic, the designs of Hervé Léger by Max Azria makes for a positively divine summer wardrobe.
