With a philosophy that reflects the importance between luxury and sex appeal,
Norwegian designer
Kristian Aadnevik
provided a seductive and daring collection.
His departure to the gothic medieval era sets the tone for the collection in which both
power and beauty are of central importance. This is reflected not only in the bold
cuts, clean lines and in the opposing use of PVC, lace, silk and velvet but also in the
horse imagery present in graphic prints.Aadnevik intends for the strength embodied by
the horse to be imparted to the female wearing the creations. Indeed, these designs
are made for the brave individual who seeks something different. Ankle boots,
cross symbols and short cocktail dresses add a gothic edge to the vibrant, blue
chiffon horse print skirts.
Marjan Pejoski and Koji Maruyama of
KTZ
(Kokon To Zai) once again delivered a
jaw dropping collection of avant-garde street wear for autumn/winter 2013. Pleasing
all lovers of hip hop, bondage and even gothic style, KTZ
offered a delectable feast of innovative luxe street-wear as
you have never seen it before.
Inspired by witchcraft and tarot, bomber jackets, jumpers
and t-shirts were adorned with mock crosses and satanic
symbols. Sheep skin and PVC coats embroidered with
incantations and roman numerals were matched with fetish
style leather skirts and trousers. A billowing gold metallic
coat proved Pejoski and Maruyama capable of creating a
stand-alone piece in a collection where accessories played
a key part with horned sunglasses and baseball caps with
accented brims styled to resemble a witch’s hat. The luxe
bomber jackets and trousers adorned with pop art print,
chunky hop-hop style jewellery and name plate accessories
added the finishing touches central to a KTZ collection.
