Are You Ready For Web 3.0?

November 25, 2009  11:20 am

Call it a sign of the times. With the old world order seemingly hanging by a thread, designers kept things together by lacing and tying and weaving outfits all over the Spring runways. At Celine, Etro, and D&G, the approach was fairly straightforward, with looks lashed shut safari-style. Things got more interesting at Gareth Pugh, Mark Fast, and Temperley London, where the webbing became an integral part of a garment’s construction. “We used lacing to reference woven textures in Egyptian art, weaving raw leather strips across shoes, leggings, and into knits as a harder contrast to our soft draped silk pieces,” explained Ohne Titel’s Alexa Adams and Flora Gill. The result? Looks we’d happily get tangled in.

  5. Been loving the webbing Gareth’s been doing. How amazing did Jess Stam look in that Gareth Pugh dress from his Spring 2010 collection that she wore to the New Moon Screening?
