David Koma

A note from Joelle...
It's London Fashion Week next month (hooray!) and I am getting really excited. It was announced (24/01/13) that three womenswear designers (Holly Fulton, David Koma and Michael Van Der Ham) will receive Fashion Forward support from the British Fashion Council. This is a HUGE deal, and will no doubt see all of their talents bring them lots of success. It is great for emerging talents and has helped designers such as Erdem and Henry Holland.
The man behind the collection: David Koma was born in Georgia and graduated at Central St Martins in London. He is fascinated by the feminine form and this is evident as his designs are so cleverly sculptured with sleek lines and bold cut-outs.
Have a look below at my favourite pieces from the David Koma SS'12 collection. Having a white base in a Spring/Summer collection is not surprising, but  a black colour base is! Very daring for Spring/Summer, but that is what fashion is all about - stepping out of the comfort zone and redefining perceptions.
