Guishem Punk Goth at NY Fashion Week




There weren’t a lot of designers who showed Gothic sensibility this season at NY Fashion Week.  Guishem showed an edgier, sharp, pieced collection that was reminiscent of the witch in Disney’s Sleeping Beauty.

The collection was a little bit of punk, a little bit of Goth, part insect and a lot of rock n’ roll.  It was all about cocktail dresses or slick gowns for young rebellious things. 

Designer Guillermo Jop studied fashion at London’s Central St. Martin and came from a family in the textile business. 

Celebrity fans include Twilight’s Kristen Stewart, Kelly Osborne and Brittany Snow.
