concept

Igor’s inspiration comes from parachuting and haute couture. The basic idea was about mixing apparently incompatible dressing concepts to create an all-white feminine and delicate look. The collection is an interesting mix between casual and couture: parachuting canopies, cords and harness were translated in a couture context and turned into sophisticated elements that underlined the delicate fine lines adding a severity to the overall look, intensifying its femininity. Proof that anything, according to Igor, can be turned into couture.
