UPDATE: FL Q&A Interview: Tex Saverio, Indonesian fashion designer extraordinaire
I’m just going to say it. Tex Saverio is the Indonesian Alexander McQueen.
A couple of weeks ago Tex Saverio sent his Spring 2011 collection down Indonesia’s Jakarta Fashion Week runway. Using tulle, organza and laser-cut leather in greys and silver Saverio created a truly marvelous collection he appropriately dubbed “La Glacon” (icicle). Judging by his past collections, Saverio’s style is dramatic, to say the least, and very couture oriented.
Tex Saverio is a natural talent. He is only 26 and already has a prestigious Mercedes-Benz Asia Fashion Award to his name. That award he got back in 2005 when he was 21.
