An
author fashion show of prominent Czech fashion designer Ivana Follová took
place on 12/2/2015 in unique premises of Cargo Gallery (called A boat full of
Art) that anchors at Prague embankment near the Palacký Bridge.
The
whole show was ushered in by a performance by the world famous mezzo-soprano
Dagmar Pecková. She cut a dash by performing the hit song Summertime and her
renowned aria form Bizet´s opera Carmen. The tight programme was hosted by
actress Ilona Svobodová who shared their funny mutual disturbing experiences
from youth. Ivana Follová´s unconventional outfits were presented by former
models that met there over the years especially for this boat show. The show
was livened up by popular actresses staring in Ulice series (Anna Fixová, Jana
Bernášková, Šárka Vaculíková, Lenka Zahradnická, Jana Sováková, Kristána Leichtová).
All together they created an effective live picture at the end of the
programme.
The title of Ivana´s
collection refers to an Oscar winning movie by American director Sofia Coppola.
The story is about an unexpected understanding and I
think this is what is significant for my work, she explains. My focus is to
approach clients from different age groups and different social classes from
show business stars and businessmen and top managers to women and men of common
occupations. Also, the movie is set in Japan and the local culture with its
purity, craftiness and ambiguity creates some of the founding stones of my
inspiration, she specifies. The collection´s title LOST IN TRANSLATION also
draw attention to detailed tailoring of every model that is shown in crafted
game with folds and hidden details.
