The Studio 805 presentation at Fashion Scout reflected some of the prevailing trends on display in the edgier collections shown at Freemason’s House.
Sex-trade details like the wetlook plastic lips forcing models’ mouths wide open contrasted with covered-up woodprint jumpsuits and jaunty beachball accessories. Good clean fun yes?
Or not.
Lady Gaga could well be in there.
The styling distracted a little from what looked like a thoughtfully designed mini-collection with good colour combinations and prints. There have been a lot of gimp-mask style or S&M-influenced looks on show over the past week, as well as the use of beautiful, less conventional models with tattoos and piercings. Fashion Scout has been championing designers coming from a clubwear perspective, experimenting with androgyny and unisex looks and looking at the edgier side of performative sexuality, very different from the pretty creatures over at Somerset House.
