London Fashion Week Presentation: Little Shilpa

Welcome back!

That's right, it's another London Fashion Week blog post. I have already written about Niro WangHouse of MEA and Jeff Garner but today I am going to be talking about a presentation I saw about a designer collection called Little Shilpa.

Little Shilpa is predominantly a brand of headpieces. However, more recently, designer Shilpa Chavan has branched out into apparel. Little Shilpa is perhaps most famous for making headpieces for pop-star Lady Gaga.

Bold striking patterns dominated the collection. There was a heavy use of linear shapes complete with a contrasting pastel colour palette. The large geometric inspired patterns were reminiscent of the 80's- a big upcoming trend that I saw at quite a few other shows and presentations.

There were many different textures used in the collection from a fluffy towel like materials to a stretchy glitter elastic. Although the textures made the pieces quite busy I still found that it worked. The unusual combinations paired with the casual silhouettes worked together well to create a unique and artistic collection.

The main attraction was of course the tulle headpieces. Extravagant and bold in shape and design but soft in colour and material gave the collection a beautiful balance. Every headpiece was a different shape and colour giving each piece a distinct personality.
