Marcel Ostertag started off the last day of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week 2012 in Berlin on Saturday with the presentation of his shining, vibrant designs. The “Golden Muse” theme of his 2012/13 autumn/winter collection was very much evident on the catwalk: loosely draping blouses and slim-fit dresses and skirts in muted colours like blue and green underlined shimmering highlights and different patterns. Silk and cashmere were combined with cotton and leather, hound’s-tooth with cable knit and Norwegian knitwear with brocade. Movement and vibrancy took centre stage throughout the whole collection, emphasised in the show by the long flowing hair and bronze make-up of the models.There was also a special focus on the very figure-enhancing overall made from a golden silky fabric. And the last one to walk down the catwalk was the Munich designer himself, sporting high-heels and also dressed in gold. Ostertag’s show and collection impressed: the future is golden!
