    COLOUR INSPIRATION – A/W ’16-17 – “BLACK MAGIC”

  • Posted on March 8, 2016

    The 90’s influence seeped into collections, this fall, with New York designers going for a gothic look and London designers opting for all-black looks. The collections included countless looks celebrating noir-laden glamour and a penchant for punk. Marc Jacobs’ entire collection revolved around the theme and it reflected on the oversized fur coats that boasted on plumage detailing and styling of the models. Alexander Wang also used layering for his looks with short leather dresses, jackets and choker necklaces, which are characteristic of the trend. The other designers kept it comparatively simpler with Narcisco Rodriguez using a loose oversized knit, on top of a black leather skirt with a side slit. Rodarte opted for a leather trench coat on detailed fishnet stockings and The Row picking a sleek textured coat in black.
