Etienne Aigner Revival & SS13 Preview

One of the best parts of being a fashion blogger in NYC, are the showroom visits.  On my recent visit to the Etienne Aigner showroom for the SS13 press preview, I experienced the brand’s rich history and upcoming revival.  I’ve always admired Etienne Aigner’s fine leathers and equestrian qualities which fall somewhere in between a western and Sloane Ranger style.  However, what I found most interesting was that the designer started out as a bookbinder.  When his bookbinding business closed, Aigner found himself with a bunch of materials leftover and began making accessories.  With a new creative team, the brand’s original soul and vision are being restored.

Love the sophisticated simplicity of this RTW SS13 collection. Marble prints are truly becoming an Etienne Aigner signature.
