British designer and graduate of the prestigious Central Sanit Martins fashion school, Richard Quinn has become one of the must-see designers of London Fashion Week (LFW) after proving his worth season after season and having been judged from the front row of his runway show by none other than Queen Elizabeth II.
And it’s all about queens and princesses, as in addition to having been one of the few privileged to have Elizabeth II herself present at his fashion show alongside Anna Wintour, Richard presented his latest collection in a room dyed 100% pink and with an orchestra in the centre, in which his models appeared as authentic “ladies” of the 21st century and glided steadily through the vision he has of the ideal world, making reference to the saying of seeing life in pink.
Trapeze coats were in charge of opening the show, seven to be exact, as we can see in the gallery in which the designer’s characteristic British floral prints, polka dots and large hats that prevented the models’ faces from being seen predominated. Behind them we can see how a selection of dresses with accentuated waists and hips, also accompanied by wide-brimmed hats with slits in the eye area burst onto the catwalk at the same time as the peplum-style jumpsuits and the touches of “femme fatale” thanks to latex, a material also characteristic of the designer.
The finishing touch to the collection were the looks with “protective” hoods, simulating balaclavas, a big trend at the moment, and a couple of outfits that could perfectly pass for haute couture pieces made up of coats with tails and XL taffeta sleeves.
Finally and as a curiosity, we have found a similarity between Richard Quinn‘s autumn/winter 22 collection and Viktor & Rolf‘s spring 22 Haute Couture collection. Take a look at both and see if you can guess which one it is.
Despite this similar trait, R.Q.’s proposal has been a success and deserves all the accolades it is receiving.
