Saint Sintra's First Rodeo

September 09, 2021

Along with many designers debuting their first show at NYFW — Saint Sintra stands out in the crowd. The New York-based brand that riots its garments in an array of colors and textures took their first runway to the Stranger in Midtown, New York to display a collection in an equally as loud show location. The Stranger was not only filled with playful-like characters like Kim Petra and the Clermont twins, but the space filled with circus-like props dressed up like a life-sized doll-house and played upon vibrant green asphalt grass as its runway.

The S22 presentation named “The Color of Things” after the kids book, showcased a hysteric and chaotic, technicolored hyper-utopia that looked at the "post-analog world through a technicolor kaleidoscope of youth and glamour." And the pieces shown didn't shy away from that, as each piece graced upon the diverse selection of models, the clothes shined, feathered, and beamed in the spotlight.

The Color of Things relied heavily on its use of color with added accessories of jewels, feathers, and even heavy beading. Sintra's show plays upon a punk burlesque-inspired collection with heavy themes of blush-colored corsets, fish-nets piled upon multi-colored feathers, and full-body beaded dresses with nothing underneath.

As this is the designer's first show, Sintra's infectious spirit can be recognized in the garments she creates, securing her a spot on everyone's must-see list for the next fashion season.
