VIKTOR AND ROLF



My first reaction to this unusual creations-WOW!!!. It is fabric birthed into a three dimensional roar. The emergence of flowers and branches...
Being and African has many advantages especially in this case as it allows the mind to surf around  various interpretations owing to the vast tribal nature of the typical African man. While this might be viewed as a pile of hay meshed and glued as an unrealistic hat, I see a tribal tie with the past and present, an incorporation of the man of nature and the modernized man, more characterized by his insatiable love for technology . Viktor and Rolf play around colours in their natural hues and elements. The three dimensional flowers on the green and red swing dresses propel realism of nature and the mental taste of the rich tropical forest.

 

The head piece while at first has a frightful distractions is a an essential element for the depiction of what I feel is the true Natural Man( reminds me of the typical Igbo man who suits up to draw his local drink at the top of a palm tree...lol). These Dutch designer have have thus crafted a spectacular approach to the interpretation of fashion beyond the cliché of fabrics. They indeed are designers who task creativity as did Alexander McQueen. Wearable Nature? Qui. This Spring 2015 collection is one of their mind daring design that challenges fashion comfort .
