Designer Discovery: Bradley Scott

Edited by Marissa Moshell, Student

Tending to various works mended by inspirational designers, Bradley Scott has truly found his calling. Through intense study of Versace silhouettes and technique, Bradley was able to locate a sense of innate passion and undeniable style. It was upon the death of Versace in the 1990′s that Bradley enrolled himself in Parson’s school of design. Pushing the limits with cutting-edge designs, the label never fails to portray both a complex edge and flair.

The Spring 09 collection manifested under the innovative label certainly tears up the streets. Dresses, shirts, shorts, and more hit the front of the scene in a wide palette of captivating color. The collection, entitled “far and away” allows one to embrace the elements of escape. Polka dots, bows and subtle metallics make a wide appearance throughout each stitch in the line. Though inspiration is certainly at the forefront of creation, one of the biggest challenges remained “creating a series of clothes that could balance ‘rough and tough’ and ‘gentle and flirty,’ while not compromising style or function.” The message is sent and the goal is certainly surpassed; it’s a great line.
