{fashion inspiration | runway: altuzarra fall 2014}

Joseph Altuzarra presented an eclectic collection featuring handwoven pieces with dangling strings, bodyhugging dresses with colourful slits and wrap coats with generous collars. At first glance, it might seem difficult to guess the main theme— that is—until one’s mind settles upon the idea of contrasts . . .

. . . the contrast between the sleek and the chunky, the subtle and the strong, the traditional and the modern, between colours and materials, between the tailored and the knitted. All this has been achieved through a real sense for craftsmanship, the designer’s vision of true luxury.
