Matthew Williamson AW12 Show

For autumn/winter 2012 the Matthew Williamson woman celebrated the brand's 15 year anniversary by way of a decadent ball in an English stately home. All the strands of the brand come together with a rich, eclectic display of textures, colours and patterns reworked into a fresh, paired back, graphic silhouette. The intricately worked pieces focus on a fusion of old and new, rich and naïve, day to evening elements. Inspiration is found in the notion of English eccentric dress-up and refined extravagance and opulence. Watch the full catwalk show here.
