One of the many nice things about being a new designer is that you can take risks, creative-wise, and don’t really give a damn what the whole world thinks. It’s not about figures, it’s all about bringing visions to life. Aristides Vanis, a recent graduate from London’s College of Fashion, does just that. Visually striking and fun patterns, mainly inspired by nature and food-related themes, were combined with sharp tailoring and many bold colours to create a collection that definitely speaks from the heart of the young designer. Attention to detail is yet another great feature of this graduate collection where 3-D like pieces such as fish, donkeys, platters of food, flowers and cute eyes were added to both garments and footwear, providing the final and perhaps most interesting touch.
