Dora Abodi was inspired by the mythical winged Unicorn, the Unisus, presenting a fantastical collection of clothes paraded down the catwalk in front of a huge fibre glass model.
Models wore dishevelled french plaits, lip rings and smudged eye make up, horns and white painted polka dot faces: suitably bold looks to accompany a strong collection. Quilting, patent textures, feathery layers, furry fabrics, midnight black: accessorised with the Unisus as a feature on the back of jackets or the front of sweatshirts, and then as a stunning repeat applique pattern on colourful flirty sheer dresses.
I particularly adored colourful abstract geometrics on a selection of gorgeous dresses: fish bottomed and swishy in metallic stripes. This was an extravagant collection with some beautiful key pieces. And now I know what a Unisus is.
