Lisa Konno Amsterdam Fashion Week fall/winter 2016

Last year Lisa Konno’s collection was an homage to the victims of Bangladesh. This time around, on the second day of the fashion week, the Japanese-Dutch designer is not just addressing the creators/designers of fashion, but also the wearer. With ‘Your Truly’ Lisa wants everyone to think about the clothes they wear and the craftsmanship behind them more often. And she not just states this in her show notes, but actually took all of us with her on this little arts and crafts journey as we’ve gotten so out of touch with how our clothes are produced. Therefore her catwalk was filled with her patterns, patterns of one of the white blouses from the collection she also sold right after her fashion show. A refreshing, modern collection unlike anything we’ve seen so far. A black and white collection spiced up with richly colored second hand silks. A fun silhouette of boxy tops and A-line skirts topped of by quite classic beauty looks. A joy to watch that accompanied by some good old Missy Elliot tunes turned into one of our fashion favorites so far.
