Angel Sanchez S/S 2013: Color Bold Geometrics






Bold color blocking and geometric precision; all done in lightweight fabrics such as georgette and organza defines the gorgeous Spring/Summer 2013 collection by Angel Sanchez.
Crème and black highlighted with royal blue, deep-ocean blue, and mustard yellows were the theme colors for the collection, but it was all about precision details that set Angel Sanchez apart from the plethora of ready to wear evening and cocktail dress designers. The softness and gentility of the collection was given edge by this amazing geometric cut-outs technique. A simple evening floor length gown was given life as it showed off laser precise trims, and also done on a pencil skirt taking both pieces to a whole new level in fashion. Most of the pieces in the collection were in fluid silhouettes, and yet it still gave a sexy definition to a woman’s figure; achieving this is testament only to the designer’s understanding of women’s bodies, and beautifully executing his vision.

One must admit that it’s refreshing to see something different, modern, and innovative; designers such as Angel Sanchez thinking outside the box and taking a calculated risk. For example, color blocking has been done by numerous designers, and using geometric shapes as the collection’s inspiration have been noted as far back as the 1960’s, but it is undeniable that Angel Sanchez did a spectacular job modernizing both techniques for his Spring/Summer 2013 collection giving us a romantic and subtle edginess in every ensemble.
