Number Two > ‘The Nothing’ Fashion Show > Pwhoa
10 OCT 2007
As per usual Richard de Jager wowed the crowds with this avant garde knit wear label Pwhoa. The under the sea inspired collection, was an explosion of ruffled and rolled pieces of knitwear. I thought the urchin like heels were pretty cool…
Number Two > ‘The Nothing’ Fashion Show > White Noise
10 OCT 2007
I think Petro Steyn is a genius…her collection for Number Two was the most amazing thing!! Her entire collection was made out of neoprene. Different shards of it cut and glued into place to create the most bizarre shapes and forms. This collection was called Zonkey (something in between a zebra and a donkey). Her animal like masks and body suits created quite a stir on the catwalk…
Number Two > ‘The Nothing’ Fashion show > Abraham + Louisa
10 OCT 2007
For Number Two we were privileged to have Suzaan Heyns from Abraham + Louisa fly in specially for the show. As usual her work was amazing. Her collection of womens wear, plays on the contrasts of structured versus soft, masculine versus feminine…With slicked back hair, red lips and mens shoes, the models had an amazing presence on the catwalk.
We hope to have her back for Number Three…
london fashion week
19 SEP 2007
its the week of “weeks”. its London fashion week, London design week, and London architectural week….
i went to a few shows and saw some great designers, funny audiences, lovely spaces, and of course great parties!
Peter Jesen played with John Waters characters.
Eley Kishimoto had fabulous patterns layered on top of each other.
Gareth Pugh collections experiment with volume, space and unlikely fabrics scissored into bold, monochromatic patchworks and optical frenzies.
