Bite Autumn 2012

At KTZ this season there was a definite theme of lace, lace and more lace. Beautiful cut out pieces of lace were the main aesthetic from the design trio and it had never looked more striking, youthful and of course daring. Here we saw a highly tailored and exceptionally different show as lace bodysuits with peaked caps came spilling down the runway and the attitude of the models enhanced the sassiness behind the collection. Lace was also seen in the form of leggings, dresses (which were adorned with the most beautiful oversized pearl necklaces), tops, swimwear and some alluring lace-up thigh high boots.The collection oozed sexiness mixing up sheer fabrics and shiny trousers to give the modern day punk girl a fairytale makeover.

Todd Lynn

The 1902 Joseph Conrad novella ‘The Heart of Darkness’ was the inspiration for this season’s Todd Lynn collection.We saw nothing but beauty, as gorgeous sandy coloured clothing opened the show. For this collection Lynn collaborated with artist Marcus James who brought us sandy prints upon dresses.There was acute pleating, soft folding and an influx of skin as bandeau tops were given a new shape, and dresses and trousers came with splits. The colour scheme however may have been simple, yet it accentuated the femininity of this collection.There was shape, structure and above all else a creeping dramatic undertone.
