Costume National A/W 2015
Mood board: Designer Ennio Capasa practically invented the black edgy wardrobe in the late 1990s and he went back to his dark roots with a nearly all black collection of sharply cut tailoring.
Best in show: We loved it when his clothes were given a bit of texture, such as a long cock feathered dress whose plumes glistened in the light.
Finishing touches: Capasa cut thick block high heels onto his sharply pointed black boots that were worn by men and women alike.
