Natali Ruden announced the end of her career and the fashion world is crying. She will also be closing her unique boutique in Prague 1, as she revealed to us herself. She finished her career with a FUSION show, which reflected the author's view of modern times and everything it brings to us. Her choice of cuts and materials shocked and the reverberations from her last fashion show still last today. Many agree that it was a world-class show, unparalleled in the Czech environment. Come with us to look at the models that were "otherworldly".
Last Thursday, the inspirational spaces of Roztyly Plaza from Passer Invest turned into a futuristic "spaceship". Lights, music, lasers, and perfect models that shocked the audience by Natali Ruden. All this made this fashion show an unforgettable experience.
Natali Ruden belongs to the top of Czech designers and is known for her original and unmistakable design. The FUSION fashion collection carries the author's view of modern times and everything it brings us.
The models were truly otherworldly. They were processed with high couture with a large proportion of handwork. In addition to classic materials, she also worked with natural fibers and woven nylon, which gave the models a unique metallic appearance and mercury effect. She used new technologies on fabrics, where not only with the help of a laser she printed sharp patterns on haute couture fabrics, which are typical for her brand. To underline the modern and futuristic models, she put on sunglasses on models as if from another world.
The main star of the evening, beside Natali, was undoubtedly Andrea Verešová, who is the designer's muse. Andrea appeared on the catwalk in three models and all of them caused controversy, because they revealed the model's whole body and covered her face in an unusual way. "I wanted to portray Andrea in three different ways," added Natali Ruden. Next to her on the catwalk also appeared the daughter of Iva Kubelková Natálie Jirásková, who presented models that flattered her figure very much.
Natali also shocked with a model which one of the models dressed, in particular transparent dress with a sharp pattern typical of her. Over the dress, he had a jacket thrown on and under the dress he had pants, so the model looked very modern and reflected the current men's fashion trends.
For models, it was not a simple challenge, as the premises were full of stairs and they ran quite a lot. The show lasted for less than an hour. Yes, it was not the shortest show, but everything was explained at the very end.
The entire space during the show was filled with the voice of artificial intelligence, which in the finale brought the audience to astonishment. It announced to all present that this was the final show and Natali had planned and implemented it this way from the very beginning, hence the length. It was a shock to everyone as Natali Ruden is amongst the most recognised fashion designers not only in the Czech Republic, but also in the world.
"I have a clear vision and I feel it's time to fulfill it. I can't tell you more for now, but I believe everything has its right moment. Thank you for being part of the journey, which is today ended by this show,"
Natali Ruden concluded with a plan to shut down her luxury boutique in the city center.
The fashion designer did not reveal what her next stage will be, but one thing is clear. Natali Ruden will not leave the fashion industry that easily and we will still hear great things from her. We are rooting for her!
