Without a doubt, the edgiest runway show at Lincoln Center was the
Falguni
& Shane Peacock
Fall/Winter 2013 collection, which made it one of my favorites. They basically created a 3D effect with their garments by layering rich textiles. Feathers,
beadwork
, leathers, velvets and lace were meticulously presented in a classic silhouette influenced by Art Deco artist
Erte
. Balancing the luxurious softness of the collection with a harder, more powerful edge, the designers created amazing
peplum
shaped bodices out of high polished metal. The juxtaposition of the feminine sensibility with the futuristic corseted accessories
"elevated the super heroine to the next level of
badassery
," according to the designers. They achieved their intentions.
