My first show on Thursday evening involved five collections under the umbrella title “Five Argentinean Designers”. Each drew inspiration from its designer’s native country, but all in vastly different ways. It was interesting to me to experience the visions of very young designers after the likes of Carolina Herrera and Isaac Mizrahi - industry legends who boast both talent and decades of experience. I could see in their designs great ambition, even when the clothes were downright unwearable. I wonder who will become a household name within the next few seasons and who will be forgotten…even in Argentina.
