American fashion designer

Steven Alan

is a bi-coastal:  living / working on both the west coast- Los Angeles

and the east coast- New York City, of the continental United States.

Yet, his sartorial aesthetics is definintely not a melding of dress directive

from each of these two fashion specific cities.

Rather, his design slant leans firmly towards an east coast,

NYC cool / carefree style.

…

designer, Steven Alan

…

Initially a retailer / curator for up and coming designers-

Steven Alan launched his eponymous label in 1999

having no formal training in fashion design.

What he did possess was a trained eye and a clear vision

to create clothing:  starting in menswear and later to include womenswear,

which is of traditional classic casual but with his own interpretive

of distinct, albeit subtle,  modern details.

His iconic reverse seam shirt is example of this creative approach:

button down

seams on the outside

stitched down collar

narrow breast pocket

body tailored

at a length to be worn untucked

and the singular detail-  a twisted placket

…

A scarf can be that signature clothing accessory

which accentuates a fashion look or mood.

Worn in a variety of ways:

 

draped nonchalantly over shoulders

wrapped around the neck in series

serving dual purpose as neck wear and head cover

ends tucked in or ends out

 

 

a scarf can take centre stage in an outfit ensemble or

play a supporting role as accent piece.

Whatever the fashion brief, make scarf styling

a dress intention for autumn ’14

…
