NY Fashion Week: Obedient Sons And Daughters

On September 6th, CFDA/Vogue Fashion Fund nominees Swaim and Christina Hutson, the design duo behind Obedient Sons and Daughters, presented their Spring 2009 collection at Industria Studios in New York City.

Obedient Sons was founded as ‘an exploration of the ambition of youth’, combining meticulous tailoring with a rebellious sensibility. Drawing inspiration from cults and communes, their Spring collection presented their sons and daughters in a serene and bleached-out palette, wearing similar versions of the same ideas. Perfectly tailored linen and cotton jackets were given an edgy spin, partnered with high-waisted shorts and trousers. Hand-knit sweaters and lace dresses in subdued shades were accessorized with white floppy lace hats and platform heels. Their Spring motto was ‘Turn on, tune in and drop out” which was hand-embroidered in loopy scrawl on a grey pantsuit worn by both a male and female model, as well as this sentence: “Is there life after youth?”
