Maria Grachvogel – LFW – Friday 16th September 2011

 

Every silhouette that glided the plush carpets was elegant and serene. The asymmetric dresses were made of flowing silk fabrics beginning in whites to create that ultra chic simplistic look. Capes were added to the backs of dresses to add more movement into the beautiful garments. Some had lovely soft prints of greens and black which blended in a streaky but fluid way into whites. Grachvogel draped each piece stunningly making sure the feminine figure was maintained when the waist was unseen. The slash necklines really emphasised the neck adding to the ultra elegant chic look, with lengths reaching down and below the knee the models graced down like goddesses. The lightweight fabrics clung softly against the skin showing off the contours of the body nicely, a low v neck was seen which turned a plain dress into something quite sexy.

A snakeskin print emerged in a light merky green suit which worked really well into the collection as it progressed to be printed onto chiffon tops with hints of pink. One outfit had red and white snake skin printed onto a top and cape which look unique and stylish. A bright lime plain dress was spotted as well as a bright pink which created a vast variety to the colour palette. Throughout the show there was the baggy back look which made the models look classic and delicate. More prints appeared but this time in a horizontal symmetrical print using light candy colours. The pattern almost looked as if squash had been mixed into water. Overall it was a stunning wearable chic show.
