ThreeASFOUR Fall 2012 Comes Full Circle

Edited by Jessica Lapidos

ThreeASFOUR moves right around in a circular motion, looping from the printed wearability from Spring 2012 to the more experimental outer layers of Fall. The circular thematics broke garments into fragments to assemble spherically. Leather cut laser allowed for a precise interconnectedness, as the pattern looks particularly like a spine spinning in spirals, also partially like wheels turning in a machine. The machine of threeASFOUR – Gabi, Ange, and Adi – work insulated amongst themselves, not adhering to trend cycles, but to their own spherical vision. When Sean Ono Lennon releases the threeASFOUR documentary he is filming, perhaps we will learn more how these circular parts began to turn. 

RUNWAY: Threeasfour Fall 2010 Womenswear

Edited by Kirby Marzec

Designer Gabi Asfour brought us a clever alchemy themed Fall 2010 Threeasfour collection, tapping into the seven metals of alchemy. Beyond the plethora of to-die-for metallics, Asfour’s designs defied logic. Stacked, twisted rope, leather cutouts, billowing sheers and tri-fabric tights were just some of the collection’s highlights.

QUOTE: Gabriel Asfour, Designer ThreeASFOUR

“I truly believe that the world is going to undergo a huge transformation in the next 10 years. No one talks about this, but the masses now have huge access to culture that they never had before. And that access is the real wealth, in a way that money is not. In 10 years there won’t be an elite controlling access to culture, and then things are going to change incredibly fast.”

RUNWAY RUNDOWN: Threeasfour S/S 2010

A few weeks ago, Fashion Indie gave you a sneak-peek at the Threeasfour and Yoko Ono collaboration for the label’s Spring 2010 collection. That peek, however, did little to no justice for what the pieces actually looked like. Ono’s hand-drawn print silk dresses floated down the runway alongside several structural masterpieces, constructed in a 3-D sculptural manner. I can’t say that I was crazy about the models’ makeup, but the immaculate construction certainly picks up the slack!

FIRST LOOK: Yoko Ono for ThreeASFOUR Spring 2010

Edited by Kirby Marzec

Yoko Ono’s collaboration with ThreeASFOUR for their Spring 2010 collection marks a number of firsts: 1) Ono’s first ever fashion collaboration 2) the release of Ono’s rare dot drawings, as translated on cotton and silk prints 3) a preview of Ono’s newest album, “Between My Head And Sky.” With all these new and exciting things hitting the scene, it is needless to say that come ThreeASFOUR’s show at Milk Studios on September 17th, the intricate seams and legendary patterns are going to look just as good, if not better, than they do in these photos!

NY Fashion Week: Threeasfour

Edited by Kirby Marzec

Threeasfour took the liberty of playing with their already fresh and unique silhouettes for their Spring 2009 showing. Curvy seams, layers and hems were a trend to create a seemingly sea inspired look. With coral colors and shell-shaped necklines and drapes, Threeasfour made an innovative splash on the runway!

Thanks STYLE!

Threeasfour to Debut Swimwear Collection

Edited by Rebecca Alexander

Designers Gabi, Ange and Adi are building the eight-year-old label, and have created a capsule collection of swimwear to be unveiled during their spring 2009 runway show next month. The line will take its cues from Threeasfour’s signature elements, including asymmetrical lines and circular seaming.

While the three designers have previously dabbled in swim pieces for their shows, this will be the first time they plan to produce it for wholesale distribution. We will keep you posted on all that is Threeasfour, after all, they are one of my fave designers.

Thanks WWD
