In previous years, the designer has chosen New York and Sydney to unveil the collections from the label she started in 2005. This time her chosen venue was a dark, but deliciously cool, space in Covent Garden?s Flower cellars. The soothing sounds of dream pop guitar band Beach House provided a fitting soundtrack.
For Spring/summer 13 Willow has a decidedly whimsical feel. Shades of aqua, white and biscuit dominated. Inspired by the moment between ?imagination and reality?, the thirty-six-year old designer from Melbourne reinterpreted lingerie as outerwear.
The silhouette was loose and fluid. Wide leg trousers cut to fall above the ankle were among its high points. Cut from sheer silk, they left little of the models' bodies to the imagination.
Each dress came lined with a curved corset style bra and oversized knickers. Amongst the stand out gowns was a flowing white creation which was juxtaposed with vertiginous spike boots by Christian Louboutin.
While Willow?s latest offering will undoubtedly be one of the more commercial unveiled at London Fashion Week, its arrival on the schedule is welcomed by the British fashion industry. London may be best known for its outlandish designers, however it counts on creative input from right across the spectrum to affirm its place as the most exciting fashion capital in the world.
