Josh Goot Spring 2008
Consistency is an underrated virtue in the fashion industry. Instead, the accepted ideals tend to veer toward variety and diversity. Although only twenty-seven, Australian designer Josh Goot is wise enough to know that you don⿿t try to tinker with a good thing. His spring collection, unveiled today at Chelsea⿿s Borotolami Gallery, showcased many of the signature styles we⿿ve come to expect from the young designer; body-skimming silhouettes, fluid jersey, and a palette of matte metallics and sweet pastels. While many pieces pay homage to the key trends and shapes American designers pioneered in the ⿿90s, Goot⿿s styles are free of the sporty severity that complicated many of his predecessor⿿s creations. Perfecting a blend of streamlined femininity and athletic sex appeal, Goot offers up pieces for the modern-minded wearer who appreciates, but is not entirely seduced by the sartorial past. xS.C.
