So, this was the first show for me this LFW on Friday and it was good to be back at Somerset House. Bora Aksu’s colour palette was a good start and the warm pinks, peach and orange will be very welcome come the autumn. He likes to focus on cocktail and day dresses, this time with a hint of the governess about them, and the interesting ways in which they were constructed reflect his ‘romance with a twist’ byline, adding both detail and drama.
PPQ A/W2012 London
February 21, 2012When the first model came out wheeling a bike, you knew you were in for something unconventional, which is what we were given, what with the bodies worn with just tights, the nappy pants, the bonnets, but aside from these challenges there was some clever draping, some chic dresses, good collar details on coats and although the collection relied on black, white and grey, the one pattern was flattering and the splashes of green looked fresh.
