The final collection as it was photographed. The seventeen editorial frames chosen for the walk come first. Behind them sit the working frames made on set and between looks, which hold what the published set crops away: a fastening seen from behind, a full length silhouette, a fitting adjusted between frames.
[ On the walk ]Opening frame: the three looks together under blue light, shadows thrown across the cyclorama.[ On the walk ]The trio on white, all three silhouettes readable at once, front and back.[ On the walk ]Double exposure of the line up, the collection dissolving the way the concept describes.[ On the walk ]Look A illustration plate, front and back views of the petal dress.[ On the walk ]Look A, petal dress front: hundreds of organza petals over the boned core, beaded hosiery below.[ On the walk ]Look A in movement, leg raised, the petal mass swinging away from the body.[ On the walk ]Look B illustration plate, front and back views of the shard dress.[ On the walk ]Look B, shard dress front: pale embroidered bodice with dark organza shards erupting from the waist.[ On the walk ]Look B crouching, the strongest frame of the shoot, shard volume filling the width.[ On the walk ]Look B side, mid stride, the shards reading as separate planes.[ On the walk ]Look C illustration plate, four views of the menswear look.[ On the walk ]Look C with the brocade coat held open, the architectural shoulder at full span.[ On the walk ]Look C, sheer aurora layer closest to the skin over the embroidered shorts.[ On the walk ]Look C from the back, turquoise embroidery visible through the sheer panel.[ On the walk ]Technical flat and specification for Look A, the petal dress, with surface module notes.[ On the walk ]Technical flat and specification for Look B, the shard dress, folded modules and waist depth.[ On the walk ]Technical flat and specification for Look C, the menswear jacket, tank top and shorts.All three looks appear together on the line-up plate: menswear cape sleeves top row, petal and shard skirts sketched front and back below.Shot from below, Look B fills the frame: the beaded bodice and its mirror fragments above dark shard panels that swing past the edge of the picture.Backlight blows the field to white behind all three looks at once, the menswear cape, the petal dome and the shard fan shoulder to shoulder.One file compresses seven shoot frames into a single strip, menswear, petal and shard looks repeating down the column in miniature.At three quarters, Look A's leather shoulder wing juts free of the petal mass, beaded tights and a feathered heel closing the line.From behind, crossed straps meet low on an open back, the petal volume reading as two round lobes either side of the spine.Facing forward at full length, the petal dress settles into a rounded dome from shoulder to hem, one gloved hand raised against the ground.Cropped close on the shoulder, individual organza petals stack edge over edge across Look A's bodice, each layer catching a different grey.Crouched on the pedestal, Look A shows the ankle strap buckled at the heel and the seam where petals stop and bare skin begins.In profile, the marbled print across Look B's shard panels reads at close range, ink veining visible where the fabric catches the hip.Low to the ground, Look B spreads its shard panels wide enough that a bare leg shows clean through the gap between two planes.Shot close and low, Look B's branch beaded bodice sits above a shard skirt thrown wide, each panel edged in the same painted line.A waist level crop shows Look B's bodice top cut on the diagonal, the beading stopping short where the shard panels take over.Standing full length and closed, the brocade jacket falls in a single column to a jagged hem, dragon embroidery just showing beneath.In three-quarter profile, patch pockets sit low on Look C's jacquard jacket, its floral pattern catching side light above the tailored shorts beneath.Leaning back with both feet planted and hands clasped forward, Look C's sheer overlay streams behind while the torso stays bare beneath it.Bent forward at the waist, Look C's button placket runs down the sheer layer above turquoise floral embroidery worked densely across the shorts.
