Roksanda Ilincic
Designer: Roksanda Ilincic

• “‘It’s about daring to bring the pink into winter because it’s such a spring color, and it’s such a girly color,’ the designer said.” [AP]
• “Commencing with a parade of pinks, Ilincic dabbled in most every textural and silhouette medley imaginable of the hue.” [Daily Front Row]
• “This was Roksy goes punk. Dirty princess, I’m calling it.” [The Daily Telegraph]
• “Today, as if aware of her dual appeal, she sent out a collection that demonstrated her skill for both the realities of every day (albeit an extra-special day that you’d wear these pieces) and the type of photo-worthy creations favoured by everyone from Emma Stone to Samantha Cameron.” [ELLEuk.com]
• “If the shoes were witchy, the rest of the collection was an exercise in upscale chic, topped off with a few well-placed twists.” [The Guardian]
• “The designer has not so much a point of view as a point of reference–herself. And no one looked better in the clothes than Ms. Ilincic, with a bouquet of flowers, taking her bow.” [International Herald Tribune]
• “Ilincic is her own muse. And it will take women with her kind of polished, old school glamour to truly pull these pieces off, especially the quirkier styles. [NOWFASHION]
• “Ilincic made a departure from her signature audacious colour by selecting a muted palette, with scatterings of mint green and vermillion orange. Smokey brown eyes and washed out skin gave the showing a sinister undertone as ethereal, ghostly models took on Ilincic’s own dance of the dead.” [SHOWstudio]
• “Ilincic’s offering felt like a cutting through of the ladylike-ness that is usually her stock-in-trade in favor of something a little more domestic and subversive.” [Style.com]
• “‘Much like wanting to make people feel comfortable in their homes,’ she said backstage after the show, “my women should feel like they’re in a second skin, even at an evening event.’ That solid, bare-bones approach picks up the baton where many New York designers (Victoria Beckham, Vera Wang) left off, but Ilincic did it here with her signature ethereal spin.” [Vogue.com]
• “This was certainly a sinister exploration into fairy tales, complete with witchy boots to make the point, and a collection that saw Ilincic push herself in a more adventurous direction.” [Vogue.com UK]
• “Ultrafeminine.” [WWD]
