I watched the Jeremy Scott fashion show from 2015 New York Fashion Week. I noticed that all garments had pops of bright colors. In addition, Scott incorporated 80's styles into his clothing line. As the models walked down the runway, they walked differently than a "normal" model walk, in order to allow the tips of their blonde and brunette wigs to bounce up and down a few inches. The shoes on each female model were either ankle boots in plastic silver, white and black boots, or high heels in popping bright and neon colors. Several of the garments have shiny decals or materials that reflect light and catch the eyes of the audience more, and some are plain fabric. Some of the material on some clothing pieces seemed to be plastic or rubbery. I enjoyed watching this show and I really approve of the fashion line Scott has created here. This line made me feel happy and energetic, and watching the models bounce down the runway gave me a rush! This is something I would have designed because I am a huge fan of bright colors and interesting, different materials. To me, a successful collection is one who has a nice amount of garments (averaging around 25) and having all pieces match in some way, or fit well together. Jeremy Scott did a magnificent job with this 2016 collection. His collection was spectacular because he had an array of different garments, each who has the same color scheme and/or materials. Also, he had a theme and incorporated that theme and inspiration into each and every one of his garments whether it was a male or female model and piece. Adding to all of this, Scott took 80's fashion (the bright colors, the hairstyles and wigs, the jewelry shape and sizes, and the clothing styles) and incorporated them into modern outfits for society and the fashion world. This caught my eye extremely because of the insanely bright colors, the winged eyeliner and "Twiggy" bottom eyelashes. He even put in the bounce of the wigs into the show to make each model stand out a little bit more and catch the attention of the audience he is presenting to.
