S/S and A/W 2007

s/s 2007

ONE HUNDRED AND ELEVEN

This collection was approached as a sort of retrospective of the last 111 years of fashion. From Victorian to flapper influences. We're propelled through history as the garments transpire. One garment worth mentioning is the Paco Rabanne inspired metal-link shift dress from the 60s (above). This is all about the sense of life in clothes.

AIRBORNE

Through these garments Chalayan said he was trying to connect the body to the changes of climate. It's about the environment, which you can see from the projected storms and calm seas onto the dresses. You can also see an element of the protective structure of Japanese Samurai armor. There are lots of amazing pieces in this collection, such as the remote controlled dresses and of course, the LED dresses.
