Maria Grachvogel AW13 Collection

Titled Reflection, this collection was inspired by the quiet calm of winter woodland landscapes laid bare. 

Artwork is of stark dried branches, decayed leaves and negatives of deconstructive botanical prints. On paper it sounds cold and harsh, but on silk chiffon, satin, velvet and wool it’s a warmer and softer story. 

 Texture was a key feature with degrade wool creating the illusion through a black and ivory mix.                                                                                                                                                           

 

This leather belted sheepskin coat will definitely keep you warm. Here paired with black sweater and black jacquard trousers. The woven jacquard pattern on the trousers creates an illusion of a vintage embroidered lace overlay and was also seen on dresses, skirts and jackets throughout the collection.

For the first time Grachvogel introduces the more casual skinny stretch pant and teams with her signature artwork print tops. The silk satin blouse is in the white on black negative graphic botanical print.

 Wedge ankle boots in artwork printed leather and glossy patent are collaboration with Atalanta Weller
