uan Jimenez, designer for Barrera International, once again has
created a stunning and alluring fashion collection. Jimenez debuted his
2014 preview collection for Barrera International at the Space Gallery in
Denver, Colorado in September of 2013.
The presence of art, architecture, and high couture were consistent
throughout the entire show. The designs encompassed textiles such
as silk, blended wools, and cotton; all of which added to the impeccable
design and tailoring of each piece within the show. Barrera International’s
2014 preview presentation was fun, sexy, and futuristic. The collection
was a fashion success within itself, but one must take notice of the
exceptional hair, make-up, and overall venue that simply added to the
presence of the show.
DenVhere Magazine is in love with the Juan Jimenez 2014 preview
collection. The most noted looks were a long-sleeve, soft pewter,
lavender silk blouse paired with a glitzy black and silver sequined
straight-lined skirt, showcased with a pair of 5 inch velvet lace up
wedges. Further standout looks included a chic and shimmery emerald long-sleeve, knee-length gown,
accented with strappy black heels.
We can’t forget about the guys! We also discovered Barrera International’s
take on the wool jacket for men. The men’s wool jacket looked
classic, pragmatic, and stylish. We loved the way the ensemble was
constructed. The pairing of the tan cotton shirt with a
silver vertical embellishment in the center is genius, as it allows
the color pallet to pop. Finally, we also took delight in Juan Jimenez’s
ensemble. The designer himself fashioned a polished grey and purple
checkered suit, combined with a contrasting grey dress shirt and
bright purple tie.
