Designers give us a lesson in geometric graphics

MOJEH.com brings you three London Fashion Week shows that have proven to be a valuable lesson in autumnal geometries and graphic prints.

Anya Hindmarch a/w16

Anya Hindmarch

The designer’s quirky English sensibilities reflected in the form of Eighties arcade inspired geometrie. Rubik’s cube inspired imprints extended from the venue into the flaps of Hindmarch’s utilitarian satchels and messenger bags. In a series of statement fur coats, the pixelated graphics reappeared in coloured leather squares or crystals and fur daisies blossoming across the front of heavy-duty winter wear.

David Koma

In true David Koma style, the autumn/winter 2016 collection comprises a certain sculptural aesthetic with a play of asymmetries, sharp cutouts and a certain industrial appeal exhibited in the lattice grids of chrome-lustrous studs. 

Mary Katrantzou

Giving her geometric creations a western touch, Mary Katrantzou plied her decorative impulses in boxy jackets, shirt-dresses and sheer dresses, all patched with appliquéd hearts, stars and flames. She makes a clever amalgamation of her signature psychedelic prints and merges butterfly motifs with optical graphics.
