Saving the world one dress at a time was the idea behind Shantanu Singhs collection that is inspired by penguins and global warming. The Next Episode, his label beautifully puts together the idea called Save the World that is depicted through his collection.
The 3D texturing, the streamlined shapes and the mild colours each tell their own story at The Next Episode and the collection is made up of fabrics like taffeta, silk, satin, velvet, cotton-wool and felt. The colour palette is morose yet alluring with steel grey, dark grey black and white enhanced by strips of brights in yellow and orange.
Glaciers and other rocky surfaces have served as inspiration for this collection and so surface ornamentation, layering and texturing ensued. Power shoulders, two-toned tights and faux fur mittens created a wonderful illusion, one that is both subtle yet potent.
