Most designers were pretty good at following the standard procedure of a fashion show at London Fashion Week. Show your SS15 collection…simple, right? Maybe Julien Macdonald didn’t get the memo. Or maybe he did. Who knows? Either way, he didn’t only just show off his new collection. He also revealed a £4 million diamond encrusted wedding dress. How casual.
His signature style of glamorously embellished dresses were ever-present, as were skin-tight dresses that, in his own words, “really hold and accentuate the body”. They were decorated in tattoo-esque designs in beautiful shades of blue, purple and maroon. The asymmetric design of the last dress below is a really nice and original touch, I thought.
Other dresses were slightly more frill and floaty, in summer shades of pastel pinks and yellows, with lace and floral appliqué designs. It was a stunning catwalk show, with the right amount of glitz and glam, as well as the fresh feel for SS15.
I really loved the cobalt blue tribal dress and the maroon and silver skin-tight dress. The block colour mixed with the chiffon neckline is really eye-catching and the perfect outfit for some sort of event or dinner in SS15. I’m saving up now…
For some designers, the less is more approach is key; for Julien Macdonald, you can never get enough mosaics, feathers, crystals, print and pattern. And we would never want him to change.
