For Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week-Tokyo, a / w 2016

Japanese designer, Hiroko Koshino

presented a stellar collection.

 

 

Having studied at the prestigious Bunka Fashion College, Tokyo

Ms. Koshino has been a fashion industry factor since the mid-1960s

when she opened her first high-end clothing store in Osaka.

 

She progressed to show successfully her inspired creations around the world.

Throughout the decades, Ms. Koshino has won a number of awards for

her work in fashion and art.

 

It is then of no surprise, that her autumn/winter  ’16  runway presentation

was a visual treat, expertly melding:

 

style influences from various eras

mixed fabrication of luxe textiles

diverse print designs

avant-garde accessories (headwear, jewellery, tights)

…

In all, a ying yang vibe of complementary contrasts.

…

Agender wear: dropping “the bomb” (jacket, that is!) on Fall Fashion for 2015

autumn/winter 2015, bomber jacket, Favlook - Lookfav Focus, gender neutral fashion, off - runway fashion, on runway fashion, outerwear, style ideas?, style inspiration

The bomber jacket

as a gender neutral,  on point piece

continues to explode with fashion heat

making another style statement appearance for autumn 2015.

.

…

This season, think out of the box with bomber jacket styling:

no need to march to standard military green-

go with with a jewel colour company

experiment with patterns, prints and varied fabrication

play with proportion for the long and short of it

switch up silhouette shaping in cropped or oversized options

…

The bomber, in all its permutations, is  ‘must have’ outerwear

for this autumn / winter season.

…

 

Heads up:  styling cues on and off runway

Bomb(ers ) Away!
