Metallics are everywhere in fashion right now. Clothing, accessories and make-up all have a little sheen to them. And Metallics are most definitely everywhere at London Fashion Week for A/W 12.
With many designers bringing molten-like metallics they are making their presence known, in form of dresses and skirts.
Issa London - A/W 12 collection
Most designers made the metallic embellishment on their outfits look dainty, feminine and elegant. Like Issa London, who used a “fit and flare” structured dress with double layering to emphasise the figure of the model. I really love this dress and is my favourite from her A/W collection. I love the fitting of the dress; complete with a rich paisley pattern with the duck egg blue satin finish gives it a reflective metallic feel.
Felder Felder - A/W 12 collection
This chunky knit jumper in this gorgeous blush pink/nude colour clashes beautifully with the rose gold metallic leather skater skirt designed by Felder Felder . This outfit is quite muted itself and it’s nothing innovative, but it’s so cute.
Jason Conran - A/W 12 collection
Jason Conran’s A/W collection is full of bronzy brown colours which is great because it’s not at all boring with the glisten of the metallics. I like the texture of this piece, you can tell what sort of material it is by looking at the image, and even though it’s metallic it seems a quite matte material. I love the detail of the bow and where it’s placed, instead of a collar. I’m not to sure about the silhouette and the style of the dress; I just think it doesn’t look right with the bow and then the drop down waist.
