Mary Katrantzou...




This collection was more about "the woman in the room" stated the designer. "It's more fluid, more real." Katrantzou imagined the woman as a connoisseur, surrounded by objects including Fabergé eggs, Meissen porcelain, cloisonné enamel, and Ming vases. And all of these reproduced in hyper-vivid prints.

Personally, I am not quite sure about the silhouettes of some of these outsides, such as the ones that slightly resemble a lampshade. But I love the bias-cut dresses in which the print is positioned perfectly. The prints are mis-matched together to create a lot of bright, bold colour. Although I think they are a little too mis-matched for my liking. However, I do think it was a great, bold end to London Fashion Week.

Autumn/Winter 10/11- Whats in store for Martin Margiela???




I am currently doing a project based on the designer, Martin Margiela. I have thoroughly research his previous collections, background, stores and style. I have researched trends for Autumn Winter 2010/2011 in order to create my own moodboard, picking out key things that Margiela would. I have created a customer board, moodboard and fabric board. This means that I am now up to the part I like best: the designing!! I will update you on this project soon, showing you the designs created from this inspiration. The work above shows Margiela's previous collection, the moodboard and customer board.
