SPRING SUMMER 2011
Structure, order and confinement are re-discovered and institutionalised into voluminous silhouettes as they are interlinked into a battle encapsulating the feminine form. Working with the ideas of dismemberment, mechanism and femininity, the collection is an evolution of the ‘second skin’, a metropolis armour. Strong, durable leathers are teamed with soft silks in a dichotomy of fabrics, contrasted and manipulated into fluid movements, providing soft structuring within the collection. Leather pleat detailing draws attention to the seam lines and curvilinear shaping of the garments, adding a contemporary edge to femininity. With the bust and hips commended as the erogenous zones, they are enhanced and up-scaled through the use of panelling or subtraction cutting.
