Anne Valerie Hash Spring 2003
I don’t usually post HC collections but this one is definitely one of my all time favorites. It is basically perfection. Not only had Ms. Hash had less than a handful of shows by this point in time but you’d never really know it by looking back on these works now. I think a lot of times couture is just so over the top and is couture for the sake of being couture… but when a designer makes couture basics, it is really special to me. Sometimes less is much more; it is easier to find the special details without all the frivolous overkill. AVH recieved a lot of Japanese designer comparisons in the beginning and this was one of the collections where she undeniably came into her own. I love how she kept certain trademarks and quickly learned to edit out the unnessecary elements of her work. At this point is when we really got the pleasure to learn who AVH really is. Everything here is just right; very practical but also very special and unique pieces.
