OMER ASIM SS17

The final presentation I saw at London Fashion Week was the Omer Asim SS17 collection. Titled 'Reversed sensory', it was definitely on the editorial side, and to me it seemed more like art installations than anything else.



The models had painted black hands and feet, empathising with the black painted motifs on the clothes.



Omer Asim studied architecture as part of his eventual route to fashion design, and I think you can see this in the clothes, with the strong geometric lines and bold industrial jewellery.

OMER ASIM SS16


Omer Asim's SS16 collection was held in an eerie corner of the Elms Lesters painting rooms with a beautiful sky light and a creepy painting of Jesus. The industrial setting was a refreshing contrast to the elegant clothes of the collection. The models floated from corner to corner, completely static once they found their place.




The collection focused on clean lines and silhouettes with a neutral colour palette. I loved the braid crowns that the female models wore, emphasising the gender fluid shapes of some pieces.
