Designed by sisters Tina and Nikita Sutradhar, this fun collection had a sporty, futuristic flavor. The duo said the lineup was inspired by “people who go out to explore something new, explore the unknown.” The result was a collection with clever cuts — and a strong point of view.
The sisters — who won a special jury award at the LVMH Prize for Young Fashion Designers in 2014 — played with the idea of explorers drawing diagrams of the earth’s strata.
One of the collection’s key elements was a wave motif that mimicked those illustrations: Waves appeared as deep purple velvet stripes across a lilac crepe top, or as randomly placed embroidery on a tailored great coat.
