A Cykic Review "Thank God for London's Katrantzou"







This is what I'm talking about. Mary Katrantzou kept her vision true to her design aesthetic, but brought in new motifs, fabrications and silhouettes. She delved into pants and knits while still staying genuine to her signature ornate dresses. Katrantzou found inspiration in household items using clothes hangers and rotary dials in her prints. Genius, I know. She took it one step further collaborating with embroidery house Lesage resulting in surreal creations, such as hundreds of yellow eraser-tipped pencils sewn onto a tulip-shaped skirt of a silk dress. The girl can do no wrong.


I expect Anna Dello Russo to purchase a majority of the collection and style it straight off the runway since she can't seem to put her designer ensembles together effortlessly.
