‘This show was dedicated to Isabella Blow, who liked to obscure her face with hats and veils. The brief was to create a metallic structure that would partially cover the face, acting not only as decoration but as protection. The metal frame envelopes the torso and seamlessly becomes part of the dress – something that Isabella would have loved.’ S.L.
