Mary Katrantzou A/W 2014

Mary Katrantzou showcased her A/W collection on Sunday. I'm a huge fan of Mary’s designs and frequently wear her creations. Mary is famously known for her natural ability to make huge bold striking patterns work, teaming together colours and shapes not traditionally put together and somehow she makes it work, and we love it.

This season Mary has decided to make a few changes to her usual style and approach to designing, rightly so as the best designers experiment to break into new ground.  Mary experiments with monochrome this season and moves away from her bright colour palette. This collection still has injections of colour baby blue, deep red, forest green all feature throughout the collection.

The real unique and spectacular thing about this collection is the complex construction process used. Mary has used a number of technical processes including bonding, laminates and embossing. Her use of jersey in full length gowns as a platform for the embroidery is really clever and takes great skill.

I love this collection it shows a different spin to Mary Katrantzou's design ability and fashion design flair. Congratulations on a diverse new collection Mary!
