David Koma took on a trio of references — tailoring, modern art and metallics — for his fall collection.
Koma, who also is at the helm of Mugler in Paris, cited artist and sculptor Frank Cota — notably from his industrial and mechanical references. The result was a well-constructed lineup of polished and sexy pieces, from racer-back dresses to trousers dabbed with napa leather.
Tailoring was a new direction for the designer, seen in cashmere felt coats — long, cropped or sleeveless — some belted over short wool crepe dresses with metal ball embellishments.
