Mondegreen showed its AW13 collection ‘Runaway Circus’ at Wellington Fashion Week in the Group Collections Showcase on Thursday 4th April.
Other labels in the showcase included Trelise Cooper, moochi, twoWORLDS, STORM, Sabatini at Goodness, and Taylor.
Mondegreen really stood out with its flamboyant introduction starring a hoop performer and models wearing circus headgear, sequin headbands and ears, bowties, and leather fingerless gloves, and faux suspender tights with boots.
The sexy-yet-fun styling echoed the title of ‘Runaway Circus’ and set the carnivalesque theme, taking it from being a regular catwalk show into a real ‘show.’ A Ringleader even walked the catwalk!
Colours were on-trend with charcoal, burgundy, and flashes of gold and bronze bringing a metallic sheen to the garments. Fabrics had beautiful textures, including silks, velvets, knits and sequins. My favourite piece of the collection was a rose and faceted print made into a quilted bomber jacket.
See their website at www.mondegreen.co.nz and runaway to the circus with them.
Here are some of the highlights from the show:
