Lady Muse by Mathilde was next, and was less invigorating than the previous collection. Her line of Edwardian-inspired, limited edition "desposyni" coats (for both men and women) constructed with rescued fabrics, seemed more like drapes thrown away by the Von Trapp family. And instead of posing at the end of the runway, the models curtsied or bowed in different color combinations of the same tapestry material. Highlight: The Ivory version of the coat.
Andira Rain T's was presented with my favorite accessory of the show, two shirtless guys playing the bongos. Their women's line of bright colored leggings were all shown with strategically cut out holes down the sides as well as deconstructed shirts that laced up the back. Every shirt sold supports the Costa Rican rain forest. Highlight: The two little girls who worked that runway like they had been doing it for 20 years.
