MARY KATRANTZOU:LFW Spring 2011-Mary had a little Lamp!!

Mary Katrantzou's Spring Collection revelled  treasure troves in her style attic past, like play houses and dolls. Katrantzou's fantastic journey unfurled eye-popping covetable pieces, enthralling us once again with her surprise elements.


Carnival rainbow of hues, art nouveau, 3-D, al frescoes and digital prints create fabulous wearable pieces as expected from this creative young designer...and nothing came shorts of illusions and magic!





Her structural outfits in pure splash of colors, came with high finished tailoring. Katranzou's journey to the baroque and Disneyland influence, leaves us in twirling fantasy at her first solo runway show yesterday in Waterloo.






Like Alice, Mary's playhouse fantasy of  curtains draped on structured bodice with playful lampshades that became her theatrical skirts where Katrantzou played miniature movies of little kitchen with little cups and saucers.









Surreal images of gardens are visuals, juxtaposed by her geometric fluidity in tailoring techniques. Godet inserts, pleats, ruching  and frills of rich silks in emerald , rubies, mint greens and chocolate were little detailing that made Katrantzou's haute naughty collection amongst the desirables in somewhat less eclectic London Fashion Week season.
