Fashion Makes People Cry. FACT!

This collection made some people at Fashion week nearly cry.  Although I wouldn't go as far as crying, it did bring a smile on my face!

I loved the shimmery leather fabric that he used for his first looks on the catwalk.  At first sight it looks like the fabric is wet, but as you look closer you realised its just beautiful shimmering fabric.  Love it when fashion surprises you!
Christopher Kane also used a lot of embellishment (not surprising-remember his first neon diamond encrusted collection anyone??!!)  This time, it took a more elegant and sophisticated approach, using a colour palette of nude and tonal gem embellishments, which look absolutely to die for!  (I can't help but wonder how heavy it would feel!!)  He also used embellishment on denim, in particular I liked the crystals he placed on the knees, great way to jazz them up and I feel there are copies of these being made as we speak for high street retailers (River Island springs to mind!!)
Kane also introduces sheer fabrics on shell tops and shift dresses and teams them with beautiful collaged appliqued printed floral motifs..(this is the bit that made me smile)  Lovely way to introduce colour to subdued shades of nude and dove grey.
