Recently I have been looking at all the new SS12 collections to see what designers stood out for me personally and what new designers there are out there at the moment. One Collection that stood and and struct me as interesting was The Paco Rebanne house collection. One reason why i was interesting in finding out more about this collection is because Paco Rebanne hasn't done any big catwalk shows for a while, so i was interested to see what he had created. I was also interested to see what was created because Manish Arora is the new artistic director for the Paco Rabanne house, he is known for his Bright, out there colours and motifs as well as being a showman.
I had a look at the picture and the video of the show and was completly blow away by it. It was inivitive, colourful and had sort of a space age/ futuristic look to it.

Some of the piece from this collection sort of reminded me of Paco Rebanne's designs from the 60's when he used metal and other materials to create designs, Expect Manish Arora has taken it took the 21st century by making the collection light and fit the body light a glove. The theme to his stunning collection was light, feminine dresses with exaggerated hourglass waists and sharp shoulders. In doing this extravagant collection Manish Arora asked Phillip Tracey to create the flying saucer hats and Nicholas Kirchwood to create the crystal encrusted shoes, these are both also initiative and fashion forward designers which really made for in my eye a great collection.
