London Fashion Week – Bernard Chandran

Bernard Chandran‘s
collection of silky dresses, pantsuits and separates draws inspiration from the
Malaysian jungle of his heritage, with structural detailing and oversized
pockets that are reminiscent of colonial safari gear. Knotted, twined belts
finish the look.
Despite a futuristic
aesthetic and the heavy use of metallics, the collection has a natural and
organic feel, which is upheld by the final piece – a shift with amazing
feathered detailing.
Chandran also manages to
incorporate a lot of looks into one catwalk, seamlessly shifting between
natural aesthetics and metallic evening wear.
Everything is tied together
with minimal make-up and sleek buns secured at the side of the head.
