Fashion Week Recap-Ivy h. Collection

Project Runway fans celebrate! Ivy Higa, who was a contestant on Season 8, presented her collection for Fall/Winter 2011. She started her label in the fall of 2008, and this is the fourth collection that she has presented.

Raised in Hawaii, Ivy used that as her inspiration for her sixteen look creation.  She used color and sequencing to show the journey of Kilauea’s pahoehoe lava sizzling in the volcano, erupting out and then searching its way to the sea.  The deep grey and black colors represented the volcanic rock and the steam escaping into the air. The boiling lava was represented by the bright yellow and the white. The cooling volcano heat was represented by the blues, vibrant cobalt and turquoise.  Pretty and feminine!
