Coming out from the reigns of his former
partnership at Pavoni, Mikael Derderian’s first showcase under his own
signature line (Mikael D) became one of the most talked about shows
this season at WMCFW. The eveningwear spectacle had a focus on
body-hugging silhouettes. The color palette stayed fairly neutral in
black and nude with pops of royal blue, emerald greens and metallics.
The common motif of strategic beading against a nude illusion gown seems
to be a signature in his aesthetic, a technique popularized by high
profile designers such as Zuhair Murad and Marchesa.
When asked about
future plans for his label, Derderian said, “ I plan on doing couture in
Paris soon and when I do, I plan on doing something outrageous and not
just commercial.” With his couture-level craftsmanship and ethereal
designs, Mikael D may very well carve a spot in the Chambre Syndicale as
his label strengthens each season.
