LFW: Amanda Wakeley Print E-mail
What with Jacob Kimmie and Ashley Isham followed by Amanda Wakeley day 2 at London Fashion Week was rapidly turning into an evening frock fest.


Amanda Wakeley Amanda certainly knows how to cut a good frock that fits and falls in all the right places. Her latest collection was inspired by the languorous line of 1920’s illustrations by Jean-Gabriel Domergue. Models were super slick and super lean with a silhouette, for the most part, that was slinky and narrow on the limbs and more relaxed around the torso. Swing jackets, cocoon coats and sweater dresses relaxed body-con separates and skin-tight over-the-knee boots.

 

 

Suede, mohair and cashmere added texture against pearlised leather, chiffon and liquid jersey. Moving into evening models emerged as warrior princesses as Amanda’s full-length gowns were toughened up with decorative stud work and armour style beading.

 

 

True to form the collection was distinctively Amanda Wakeley; sensual, confident and luxurious with a nod to contemporary trends and influences.
