MCFW: SIMONGAO FALL / WINTER 2014
‘I want to bring some elements of civilization inheritance into the modern technological life,’ asserted Simon Gao, who was ‘ trying to express a different sort of urban style‘ via his fall/winter 2014 collection. And with stirring beats and drums performed by live band Pet Conspiracy, the show also slightly featured a tone of belligerent enthusiasm.
Designer Gao’s collection was in shades of white, grey, black, and dark goldenrod with touches of embroideries and jacquards. Leather in the first few looks was well executed by approaches of pleating, matching fur sleeves, and even with small circular twists embossed. The shoulder lines of coats continued into sleeves creating a slouchy, deconstructed silhouette that felt kimono-inspired but quite current. Sneakers, according to Gao, was a taking point of the collection that ‘helped women discover their internal charm’, as well as ‘extending an easy, exhilarating, and comfy attitude towards life and aesthetics.’ I personally had a special craving for the waist belts worn over the coats that dominated the proportion of the collection. They added an extra hint of masculinity which was flattering and like a bit flirty.
Last but not least, I’ve also covered some backstage scenes in the case that you might be interested. Click through the slide shows and catch a sneak of them!
