Powerful Prints


Above is Mary Kantrantzou's SS12 collection. Advised against launching her own label- her superiors told her to hold back a few seasons- she has successfully silenced her critics. Her pieces, worn by the most influential women in the fashion and film industries, are absolutely stunning! Ocean blue, mint green, fuchsia pink and ruby red mashed together in what can only be described as an oxymoronic display of colour and print. An abundance of natural imagery- flowers, birds, foliage and tropical fish juxtaposed with tins, cans, car parts and other items indicative of mans unfortunate footprint. Draped asymmetric dresses to gowns with billowing trains the collection caters for all. And perhaps most importantly, her collaboration with Topshop makes them all the more affordable. Don't mind if I do....
