Details


Wooden beads embroidered shoes. Knitted trench. Woven bags. The colors - mustard, plum and dark green sometimes created autumnal mood rather than the summer. Overall, however, for Britain is not the hottest collection of very old, especially this tells us shoes with braided platform. From the materials we note raffia: is a rather uneven strip fibers from the leaves of palm trees. And, of course, it reminds us of Africa.













Beauty


Classic Burberry. Nude makeup. Perhaps the most difficult. The work team of makeup artists at first sight is not felt, but we all know that in this case they put a lot of effort to create such a natural and, I would say, a bit heavy (thanks to the light in front of the bronze shading) makeup. Natural color of the eyebrows, perfect tone, light outline shadow - a great make-up.







Inspiration: Henry Moore


Location Bailey drew inspiration? Despite the clearly discernible and so popular this season, and exotic ethnic motives, Bailey argues that inspired silhouettes legendary artist Henry Moore.



But given that Moore was influenced by Picasso, which in turn is also dependent on the subject of Africa, we can say that the textures, silhouettes and images of models played a tribal edge.
