Fashion Paloma Soledad Show.
Posted by Eden Dawn on Mon, Jul 19, 2010 at 9:19 AM
As I walked into Paloma Soledad’s fashion and art combined event, I truly was not sure what to expect. The event was to promote the birth of new company Mythaus, a collaboration between artist Robb Kramer and Soledad. Having been familiar with Paloma as the designer who won Portland Fashion Week’s “Emerging Designer” competition last fall, I knew she made beautiful corsets and had a theatrical flair, but didn’t know what that would turn into. And it turned into a grander version of what I had seen at PFW. The show had a full theater performance for Act I that included a creepy shadow puppet show, an implied murder, three mummy-ninja creatures encased in white, and a girl in tatters with poles attached to her body dragged into the beyond. By the time the runway show began I had actually kind of forgot I was there to see clothing. But clothing there was! A costume leaning collection (unless you’re adventurous), the star of the show were the intricately made corsets that were the standout of any ensemble they belonged to. Paloma seems to be quite adept at carving out a niche for herself with the direction she is going in, and I am interested to see what could possibly happen at her next show. Knife juggling marionettes on a bridge with models traipsing down in Victorian waist cinchers? She could probably pull it off.
