London Fashion Week: Aminaka Wilmont AW2010

Maki Aminaka Löfvander and Marcus Wilmontmake are the two designers behind Aminaka Wilmont, the second show I saw on the first day. Taking place at Victoria House as part of the On|Off shows, I was eager to see what they had in store for their AW2010 collection.

The collection consisted of a lot of graphic print dresses in varying lengths (mid-thigh, knee and mid-calf), and different sleeves (sleeveless, cap, long and combo of cap and long). Necklines were kept simple and to a minimum, as the focus was on the shoulders. Draping was a strong theme up around the shoulders, as well as down the front of some dresses, ultimately creating a beautiful and flowing silhouette.

Leggings were paired with oversized tops and/or sweaters, again creating a strong shoulder and drawing the focus here. I loved the hair accessories used in the second half of the show. These  feathery accessories would sure make a statement should someone be bold enough to wear one in public!
