Asymmetric Turn

A major theme this season, the asymmetric cut, was a part and parcel of every ramp show. Spliced fabrics were reassembled in geometric shapes on sheer bases at David Koma and Mary Katrantzou, bias cut forms were present on skirts at Creatures of Comfort and Tanya Taylor, uneven hemlines defined the dresses for Araks and Suno, one-shoulder garments and multiple layers rendered a sense of unevenness to the garments of Dries Van Noten, Tanya Taylor and many more. Several dresses boasted of dual prints while carrying off the half-n-half trend, only done in a vertical fashion and others, stood out through the variation in length. The addition of peplums was also seen, attached across a shoulder and on trouser waists which added to the collage-like effect of falling off fabric randomly taped together. Asymmetry was not only embraced by silhouette details and shapes but also through unequal and jagged prints.
