Sass & Bide offered a new perspective for Spring, when they showed yesterday at 250 Hudson St in Manhattan. While many designers are sticking with traditional Spring colors, black was a main feature among various prints. There’s was an eclectic mix of Cleopatra meets fantasy rocker, evident in some of the structured, armor-like tops and intricate details all around. I also dug the unique layering of their skirts! Started in 1999 by a former accountant and an advertising art director (and judging from the photo above very busy Moms!), Sarah-Jane Clarke and Heidi Middleton, the brand gained momentum after creating a denim collection more specifically “the east village hipster jean” and launched a RTW line two years later.
I think they have fresh ideas and I’m sure we’ll continue to hear more about these two! Are you guys following us on Twitter and Facebook yet?
