JUNNE AW19 at London Fashion Week

The London debut collection of Chinese knitwear brand JUNNE is inspired by the renowned Mexican female artist Frida Kahlo.

 Taking the different artistic elements from paintings and artwork by Frida – designer Junne Lau builds the structure of the knit from a single yarn.

Expertly weave together a series of 2D texture and 3D shapes; the JUNNE knitwear has been reconstructed.

Particularly noting a series taken reference from the skeletons that’s heavily presented within Frida’s paintings – JUNNE shapes the yarns to form bone like texture in maxi capes ,

to fine knitted tops

 and cocoon knitted dress in white.

 The collection also depicts pain in an ever so modern fashion – sleek metal green sweater ripped at the bottom;

Knitted sketches of straps, bolts and bones on fluid dress

coat fastened tightly with leather belt,

and tops pierced with continuous saftey pins.

 The reference taken is artistic but the interpretation is sleek, concise and modern.
