Fashion Week is all about surprises and Sister By Sibling sure did not disappoint in that department. Despite being notorious for their trademark knitwear designs, Sid Bryan, Joe Bates and Cozette McCreery took on a much more matured direction this time and showcased a new line where knits are being supplementary elements rather than the main attraction. The SS14 show kicked off with a model sporting a hot pair of jean shorts and a casual blouse spelling Lead Sister, instantly bringing images of a sorority theme to mind. Fast forward a few looks and as the show progresses we go from High School Sweetheart to an upper middle class woman who likes to keep things retro and glamorous all while remaining the same girl who used to steal kisses under the bleachers. Intricate animal and flower prints along with bold colour choices including those of fiery red, baby blue, canary yellow and several shades of mutated violet, only add to the overall theme which suggests that a woman many never lose her ‘lead sister’ status as long as she stays young at heart.
