The streamlined tailoring and body-centric direction of Mugler under David Koma makes for nice, sexy and salable clothes but a drowsy runway. For his second show, Koma essentially put a showroom collection on the catwalk.
Taut and sparely cut, short dresses in white, black and blue were detailed with steel grommets and embroidery that traced anatomical lines around the body. White crepe skirts were trimmed in rose-gold leather in patterns meant to mimic microchips and circuit boards. Toward the end of the lineup, two lean turtleneck gowns with cutouts at the sides and the two sporty tanks with exposed corset boning and skinny pants that followed achieved the modern elegance Koma seemed to be striving for.
