Emphasizing their love of tailoring, Morgado and Bureau went for precise, low-buttoned tuxedo jackets with rounded lapels paired with double-cuff trousers; graphic star prints were shown layered on dresses to create a quasi-holographic effect, while leather jackets and traditional frocks were cheekily adorned with swirling ribbons. Alexandre Matthieu's playful take on ladylike dressing included a cross-your-heart puff of fur, a long dress with a trompe-l'oeil bolero detail, and a beaded silver-and-black coat worn with stockings that would've looked perfectly appropriate on an extravagant circus ringmistress.
Forgoing the heavy-handed conceptualism of many new
designers in favor of a light, joyous approach to
design, Morgado and Bureau are well on their way to
carving out a distinctive niche for themselves.
