It burned our retinas to see so many colours again but you know what they say? No pain, no gain! This season is all about poolside glamour. Think embellishments such as sequins, beads, lace and ruffles. Vintage prints, crochet and colourful kaftans. Leopard print, bleeding watercolours, renaissance art. Aboriginal patterns and pink python print – yes, you heard us. Of course there was also sheer, leather and cut-outs, proving that indoor glam can venture out into the light of day and is not purely reserved for after 5. Our favourites of the collection were Blackbox, Lisa Blue and White Sands. Oh, LUST…
Today also showcased Ms Couture’s sexy vamp lingerie collection for those ladies who like to be fashionable both inside and out and the New Generation runway shows. Ones to watch were designers Flowers for a Vagabond and Khrysalis – keep your eyes on these ones fashionistas, don’t say you weren’t warned! Hussy also injected colour into the season with relaxed minis, floaty maxis and sexy playsuits in vibrant pinks and emerald greens.
Last, but most certainly not least – RAFW was closed by none other than birthday boys (their 10th to be exact!), KSBUI. Without a rat in sight, the collection was all about denim, denim and more denim. Interesting textures, strategically placed rips and cut-outs. After being 3 years absent from Fashion Week, the boys behind the label were welcomed back with highly anticipated open arms and we were so very pleased to see that the collection, titled “One Via Zero” still possessed the typical rawness and denim edge associated with the brand. Oh how we’ve missed you…
