Christian Cota Spring/Summer 2009 Show

The Christian Cota show was a more casual of an event than the La Perla one. It was a daytime viewing that was much in the same style as La Perla. Several models stood on a stage so you could view the collection as a whole. I have to say that I like this new way of presenting better than the normal runway show. It’s a little less dramatic, but you get to take your time and really observe the pieces. Usually at runway shows you get all dressed up, wait in line for thirty minutes, wait in your seat for another 15, then a 10 minute show.

That being said, Christian’s collection was quite spectacular. Draped in loose and airy warms and whites, the collection was a light and playful with a serious sophistication. This Impressionist inspired collection definitely left us impressed! At the young age of 26, and only having 3 shows thus far, Christian is showing serious promise in becoming a superstar designer. Apparently, we’re not the only ones to think so. Christian has already received tons of press and was even called “Mexico’s answer to Oscar de la Renta” on Page 6 of the NY Post. We wish him the best and look forward to seeing him grow.
