COOP BY TRELISE COOPER S/S15

Friday, 18 July 2014

It gives me great pleasure to present to you some of the pieces from the new COOP by Trelise Cooper Sping 2015 collection. When I found out that the collection was dropping soon, I wanted to get in as soon as possible to see what was going to hit the stores as I've always loved this range by looking through it online - so I had emailed and requested to take a look at some samples at the Trelise Cooper headquarters. I was surprised to have been accepted to take a look since I'm such a new blogger, so that is something I appreciate very much about Trelise Cooper as a whole - they are always so open and happy to give up-and-coming media a chance. I've come by several occasions where I've heard people say "Trelise Cooper... this", "Trelise Cooper... that", how great both the service and how kind the staff is and I can see why. So, I went over to the headquarters and couldn't believe what I saw. COOP by Trelise Cooper is aimed towards a younger demographic, but it's mature enough to be elegant and fun at the same time. I picked out a few of my favourite pieces from the line so that I could take photographs for you on what is coming up next in the line. The first capsule of the Spring 2015 line dropped today - these pieces that you are able to see aren't in that capsule. It's so new that I don't even know what they're called yet, so you'll have to keep your eyes peeled on their website/social media for the next capsules!

First thing's first (I'm a realist), the new season's clothing are inspired by a few things: Oriental, En route to Europe and Art (Pollock & Warhol). You'll see what I mean when you look at the photographs now that I've mentioned it.

I can tell where in inspiration comes from with the yellow dress above: When you look at the big sleeves (That's what amuses me the most), you can clearly tell the resemblance between the Japanese/Chinese warrior clothing in the olden days. Don't be fooled by this simple dress - it will catch anyone's eyes on the street.

The coat above isn't actually from COOP by Trelise Cooper, it's actually from the main Trelise Cooper line but I couldn't ignore it when I was flicking through the pieces. I love anything structured and textured so this is perfect. I love that it gives you a beautiful neck line unlike many other coats where it makes your neck look even shorter - don't underestimate the neck, guys - necks are wonderful things (How weird does that sound??)

Now back onto COOP - Can you see the resemblance between Pollock's piece and the outfit below? Yeah, I can too. Not only is this a unique gradient but the fabric is stunning too, beautiful for both sleepwear and outwear - who can tell the difference. If you're late to work, just get up, brush your hair and out the door you go.
