Osklen's Oskar Mestavaht was inspired by Inhotim, the Brazilian open air contemporary art museum that boasts works by Anish Kapoor, Doug Aitken and many more within its tropical garden grounds. The show began with a series of pure, raw silk looks, but true to Osklen's innovative spirit, the organic silk used is made from recycled cocoons and then coloured with vegetable dyes - a product of the brand's collaboration with Instituto-E to identify sustainable raw materials. By weaving the silk into a myriad of different textures, the collection became a wonderful showcase for how one material can be treated. From raw-edged trousers to silk straw mule sneakers and flirty, silk fringe dresses, Osklen states its claim easily. The colour palette for the raw silk pieces may have been constrained to neutrals, but the label still showed off its Brazilian flair with a family of tropical flower print dresses in vibrant hues. Finished off with silk and leather flower necklaces and the odd fish skin clutch, Osklen's collection was laid back, with just the right amount of hedonism, quite like the Brazilians themselves.
