our Indonesian designers – Julianto, Marina Christyanti Ayumi, Maggie Hutauruk-Eddy and Yogiswari Prajanti – brought their creations to the stage at the Indonesian Diversity show at Spring Studios for New York Fashion Week (NYFW).
The designers, who presented their collections from Sept. 4 to 11 for NYFW's Spring/Summer 2020 season, then revealed their designs back at home after the showcase.
Julianto went with the tried-and-tested style of classic femininity in both ready-to-wear and couture, highlighting the designer’s affinity for an air of grace and delicateness.
Debuting with the collection "Il Fiore" – which means "the flower" in Italian – the Istituto di Moda Burgo graduate later staged a repeat of his 12-look collection in a mini show at The Tribrata, South Jakarta.
Julianto said the idea for "Il Fiore" came from his student days in Milan, in which he wanted to create a collection based on his early days in fashion.
Like the collection's title, floral motifs became the main attraction of the designs. The use of roses in particular is a nod to Julianto's earlier label Mojuya, which featured a rose in its logo.
"The signature style is taken from ready-to-wear, so some styles can be very different, from trousers to long dresses. Two [looks] from the finale are in a semi-wedding style, which I want to further develop down the line," he said.
