Bernard Chandran

Brown and olive green are the key colour of Bernard Chandran this season. Chic colour arrangement and motif like trench coat parts created traditional and challenging look at the same time. “Marie-Antoinette’s sexuality” was his theme. If you think you can feel pure, innocent but extremely selfish, look here.

The first look was like a “Golden Mushroom” which was very impressive. A style that walked the line of wearable, always one of the most popular parts of LFW. Round silhouette mini dresses, made with hundreds of sparkling spangles and gold strings and reflecting the lights whenever the model walks by. Using the material blue and rust colour of gold for body conscious jacket style made it totally worth.
