This Saturday past the 15th of September, I was privileged enough to attend the Ashley Isham SS13 show, which was held at the gorgeous location of Goldsmith Hall on Foster Lane.
The show was fantastic showcasing all what Ashley does best exquisite drapery juxtaposed with sharp tailoring and not forgetting his signature embellishments. He used a variety of vibrant summer colours including shimmering oranges, cool blues and beautiful geometric prints. Including some unusual fabrics such as neoprene and his usual flowing jerseys and satins.
The show was inspired by the Orphism art movement, which was co-founded by Sonia Delaunay. Delaunay was renowned for her use of strong vibrant colours and geometric shapes. All of which you can see has been translated into his collection.
The music was done by Jodie Harsh and the Models were styled beautifully like hollywood glamour by charlie le mindu. Including super model Alyona Subbotina one of Ashley's Favourite models, whom has been the opener for the past 3-4 shows.
The show had a great atmosphere especially when the puppy came out with the first look, i think the dog almost stole the show. However Ashley redeemed himself with the pure amount of looks. With 53 looks the show had something for everyone, even when you thought it was over a mini collection of colourful jersey dresses finished of a wonderful Vibrant collection. Ashley even dyed his hair blue to carry on the theme of Orphism.
