Omar Mansoor returns with his 10th collection at
LFW featuring evening wear, depicting the context of Russian Revolution.
In Russian history the fashion revolutions always
coincided with the greatest political changes: from Peter the Great to the
Revolution of 1917 to Gorbachev's Perestroika. The Revolution of 1917 made the
Russian fashion adjust to the new Communist norms, which condemned everything
"bourgeois" and extraordinary.
The collection is constructed with hues of white and ivory
depicting the peace post revolution. The pre revolution Tsarist Autocracy is
shown with Faberge imperial eggs inspired motifs,
while the rise of revolution
is communicated with military insignia and caps,
the end of revolution peace is
shown with white and gold silk flowers.
The diffusion line includes both
knee and full length dresses along jumpsuits constructed using a range of
fabrics from silk jersey, crepes to lace blended with Lycra.
