Gluttony ‘We sin as devils do, we love as angels’
We sin as devils do; we love as angels-Fall Star, is an Autumn/Winter 2015-16 Womenswear collection. It is the exploration of some; humans need to overindulge in anything and everything. Gluttony extends far beyond the table; it is an all-consuming addiction to always wanting more. The collection is a mix of creative pattern cutting techniques to produce oversized silhouettes, portraying the voracious image of man, along side simplistic fitted pieces to create the il usion of a larger than life silhouette. Wadded knits take on restricted forms for creating the consuming appearance. Knitted accessories surface appeal, intrigue and delight with stimulating designs that create a sense of fun and play.This collection reflects a sense of youth imitated using playful, bouncy and lively shapes. Casual jersey and wool materials form comfortable garments that are unrestricted and easy to wear.
Be careful with whatever, or whoever, you allow yourself to be consumed by.
