Roving Reporter : Hussein Chalayan

Hussein Chalayan (HC) has gone all sexy on us! 
Hem lines crept up to bottom skimming levels! While the focus of the collection was obviously technological fabrics, using acetate foam fabrics. This created some gorgeous cocoon coats, funnel necks, as well as some more sellable pieces.
There were some gorgeous tuxedo style jackets as well as more 'tribal warrior' molded tops, that would have Lady GaGa salivating!

I loved the prints, they seemed to be inspired by fences, asphalt and manhole covers. 
So HC!
Wet look leggings are still 'in', but there has been an increased use of the silver variety. We saw them again here at Chalayan.

Over all a very workable collection. 
Combining print, HC technological advances and wearable pieces. What more could we ask for?
