Mary Katrantzou for Adidas

                                                                  BY DEBORAH FERGUSON

 

       November is the month in which we see the pre fall 2015 collections and the release of some of fashion's most high profile collaborations. All which become available online or exclusives in stores just before or after "Black Friday".  A title I associate with a day "I like to avoid shopping in Department stores" and instead enjoy online shopping deals while nursing the prodictable 4 day holiday hang over.

   A higly anticipated RTW designer collaboration: Mary Katrantzou x Adidas is worth the online shopping screen time. Her notorious fabric prints on sculptural silhouettes in neoprene and scuba fabrics?  Yes Ilove these as I appreciate her channeling futuristic ideas into a sportswear brand rather than recylcing retro 1980s Adidas. The Adidas sneakers are transformed by Mary into "statement " sneakers with prints and colors  that may rival the current CHANEL signature tweed sneakers.
