Media Preview -Fashion Director - Cameron Silver Winning Soon To Debut Collection + On-Air Personality
 |
| Cameron Silver-Fashion Director-H by Halston-QVC and on-air personalty. We had a nice chat-he is a perfect blend of LA friendly-laid back-and east coast sharp-smarts...loved his idea for a live audience for QVC when this fab collection 'drops'---fyi---accessible by public transportation for Big Apple dwellers. The realistic looking faux suede trench-like dress is completely washable and therefore red wine friendly---a classic. Also comes in black...pictured below... |
 |
| Colors -mostly solids-cobalt blue, black, shades of gray, pretty apricot, pale grayish-lilac-beige, and brown-flatter all skin tones |
A serendipitous meeting of the minds (
planets???) between XCEL
Partners-owner of H Halston, QVC and the retail hero Cameron
Silver -the leading light of vintage fashion's version of the Emerald
City, the left coast based-
Decades---eventually led to a well staged preview of
just
some of the reported 128 (+) SKUs of the VERY finely done H by Halson-QVC collection.
Set
to launch in September 2015 (26th)...we were super impressed -including the authentic references to the fashion icon Halston's brilliant
interpretation of American Sportswear chic (AND NO THIS IS NOT
ATHLEISURE).
 |
| we had a real Liza M. moment when we say this sheer chiffon-y tunic...such a versatile top! To layer-or for more daring types-just wear over sexy lingerie |
What's to Love: Knits, Caftans, sheer tunics, flattering jumpsuits...tailored but
not tight, a genius faux suede dress (washable-wow)...smart faux leather
jackets and blouses ready to work...all well made, of quality materials
at prices that will entice (surprise) customers from coast to
coast-including those that wore Halston on the first go round-and the
next 16 year old celeb who has yet to make her autumnal 2015 splash on
social media.
 |
| on left-we'd wear the knit with banded hem and slight roll neck-with leggings and booties...on the right-the flattering flow of the skirt and cowl neck l/s top---so spot-on chic-and flattering |
 |
| Capes...are a popular 2015 retro-style -like the kangeroo pocket in lower front-and the cowl neck. We wear this on a long airplane ride with comfy leggings- and emerge looking pulled together from the neck down, anyway. |
 |
| faux fur dresses up a wrap knit sweater... |
 |
| a well connected attendee-she looks flawless-a breathing version of what to wear in a H by Halston -QVC jumpsuit...not on sale yet! |
Added Plus: We cover a lot of footwear-and felt that the selections
preview managed to capture Fall 2015 trends well-including block heels,
stacked platforms, suede uppers, peep toe dressy sandals to wear with
hosiery, and white foxing pops on slip-ons-lifestyle riffed sneakers.
 |
| well done mix of upper textures...smooth and snake print in gray that's the new black-plus stretchy elasticized side band for easy on/off |
 |
| brown ---a 70's staple tone-used in several styles |
 |
| another great as easy to wear as a sneaker- shoe-with mule shape, color block grays-nice functional zip with a detail -'H' embossed-shows the kind of attention paid to every itty bit |
 |
| perfect classic pump |
Since fashion is having a 70s moment-
anyway---handbags
included semi-structured bucket bags with drawstring closures, subtle
'H' logos in hardware----
...and a love it want it...belt with a bold amorphous
silver hardware buckle that reminded us of the fab Elsa Perreti designs
for Tiffany's.
CODA: Noticeable--- every accessory/footwear-pairs up well with the fashionable separates...and no doubt-with wardrobes already owned
 |
| a slip-on-cut-outs with the comfort of a slipper---bumped up with banded uppers lets one wear out in the real world |
Priced-low $30s-up to mid $300s for all leather handbags
