Korean designer Hana Cha (yet another London College of Fashion graduate) stuck to monochrome for her collection with Ones to Watch at Fashion Scout, concentrating on subtle textures such as applique stars, dip dye, rough edges and sweeping tassels to provide interest. She worked in sheers, glosses and satins, accessorised with wrist bands and even a studded baseball cap.

A glossy plasticised minidress that a sexy nurse might have worn was made demure by a wide buckled belt and a sweeping skirt formed of dangling threads. An oversized white suit with wide trousers worn with gold heels brought an early 80s lounge elegance to the show, but plenty of asymmetric details and elongated back flaps ensured this was thoroughly up to date. The collection finished with a stunning black column dress; white threads dangling from the neckline an impractical but stunning addition that swayed hypnotically as the model moved.
