Terexov Mercedes-Benz Spring 2009 The Tents at Bryant Park September 7, 2008 Written by Jamie Sharpe Photographed by Ciao!

Russian designer Alexander Terekhov dazzled attendees with ruffles, fringe, asymmetrical cuts, and a rainbow of vibrant hues in pink, yellow, purple and green. The Terexov Spring 2009 runway show was well executed with chiffon dresses and embellished coatdresses that spoke to happiness and a rebirth of the seasons. There was an artistic quality to the prints that floated down the runway in layers of delicate silk.

The bright yellow long gown with side runching was a real stand out piece that absolutely made the collection. The defined waist and almost sheer fabric playfully elongated the silhouette. Overall, the clothing showed movement, and the joyous fabric choices brought an exuberance that is seldom seen on the runway. It was as if the audience could feel the designer’s passion for this collection that reveled in innocent adornments.
