Why the World is Gravitating to Sid Neigum’s Golden Ratio

Following an introduction from Vogue Arabia, Fashion Forward invited award-winning Canadian designer Sid Neigum to showcase his Spring 2018 collection at Fashion Forward‘s tenth season at d3, Dubai. Canada may not be internationally renowned as a fashion hub, but it’s been churning out talent that has found success overseas—BOF‘s Imran Amed, Tank‘s Caroline Issa, editor Joe Zee, and photographer (and singer) Bryan Adams to name a few. And with homegrown designers like Beaufille and Sid Neigum making waves, the Great North’s talent is taking a large leap across the proverbial pond to showcase in the desert.

In a few short years, the Sid Neigum label—architectural, experimental, and androgynous—has been building steam and quickly. (It’s now sold on Net-a-Porter and Farfetch.) Backstage, Neigum spoke of math as his starting point, specifically the golden ratio. Frequently found in nature, when used in design, this mathematical proportion creates an eye-pleasing effect.

Opening looks featured navy, blush, and gray viscose separates in loose, flowing fabric. The focus here was on line and proportion with a few surprises in the form of knots and hardware accents: a small chain featured on the hip of a minimalist skirt and a metal ring cinching trousers and the fabric on a black sweater. For women who have shied away from body piercings, on clothes, Neigum shifts the look from grunge to elevated, avant-garde.

The motion climaxed with the reveal of ethereal silk blouses and dresses shaped to ensconce the body like a delicate cocoon. No doubt, Dame Zaha Hadid would have loved it.

Sid Neigum is sold on Netaporter.com, Farfetch.com, and at Boutique 1 in the Middle East.

FASHION BY THE RULES: Branded!

In the annals of fashion history there are few who boast lineage and genetics as part of their resume but Ivanka Trump (Kushner) can boast both. While they may not have directly contributed to her growing success, there was a portion of those elements that created this young woman and her passions.

I met her mother when she was pregnant with Ivanka and Trump Tower was about to make an indelible splash onto the landscape of New York City. Much to my delight, Ivana was a charming and unassuming young woman who had come to us for her maternity clothes, okay so she wasn’t exactly a wall flower. Be that as it may, the young lady she and her husband raised turned out to be accomplished, poised, well spoken, of her own mind and talented on so many levels. The talents are what interest me and the talents which she has used to market herself and mold herself to the public and their tastes.

When I first read of her fine jewelry venture/partnership, I was skeptical that this was the type of “arrangement” that would hold water especially due to the category and the raw materials and well….. the sheer expense of the items. It also made me question whether or not Ms. Trump was capable other than lending her name and personage to this realm of product. I was greatly surprised to find a literal “jewel box” of a shop on Madison Avenue which was filled with a large amount of some very tasteful jewelry. The boutique offers up a wide selection of styles which range from the Cartier/David Webb inspired pieces to the more contemporary pieces that are just plain wearable and not that expensive………..relatively speaking. What I discern from the selection is a desire to utilize some not so common materials and make them approachable and appealing in a 21st century kind of way. All this has contributed to the expansion of now offering the brand at jewelry boutiques world wide.

Presently, Ms.Trump (Kushner) is lending her name and input to a new venture……..handbags. through another partnership she will try to bring this product to “real people” ……….my take is that this will hardly be for the masses but a wider audience than she has for the fine jewelry. If done carefully, I believe that the task at hand is absolutely probable and more than possible give her level headedness and her business acumen. She will know who to reference and what to put out there that will bear her name and style. She is far tamer than her mother and certainly with great appeal to younger women around the world and this might be the beginning of Ivanka Trump……….THE BRAND!
