concept
A collection to respond to the challenge of creating a style that would combine street wear, haute couture and jewellery all incorporated within one garment, inspired by a variety of influences mixed together in an eclectic and coherent whole. Among Liora’s sources of inspiration were Africa, African women, the Victorian period, the stomacher from the 18th century, Christianity and menswear, as well as the persona of Bob Dylan, who stands as a background to all her designs. The silhouettes were developed from geometric shapes, mainly triangles and crosses, working with materials such as silk, voile, tricot, cotton and silver.
