Marques'Almeida A/W 2015

Mood board: The unraveling continued at Marques'Almeida for A/W with bias draped denim in rainbow hues opening the show, followed by raw-edged, metallic brocades that referenced the decadent legacy for Christian Lacroix, albeit patchworked together with an English eccentricity.
Best in show: Marta Marques and Paulo Almeida's tailoring became increasingly dishevelled as the show went on, from a purple fur that was torn from the shoulder to ribbed knitwear that was cut and sewn together in a melange of bias seams. This notion of wrapping - especially around the neck - came courtesy of artist Frida Kahlo.
Finishing touches: Upping their accessories offering for A/W, the pair's scrunched metallic sacs held the same 1990s club girl feel as their layered chiffon looks.
