A fictional unsolved murder mystery for New York Fashion Week took place during the night at midtown riverside in Manhattan, the location that serves as an heliport, sided by a rusted vintage bridge has been truly convenient for Christian Cowan’s fashion show venue.
The british designer filled his guest imagination with the models acting and a sophisticated collection, mature yet trashy with an exclusive club dominatrix-style dress code vibes. The Model silhouettes were overdrawn with satins, leathers and sparkling fabrics under a very balanced color palette of blue, black, sparkling silver, and white with golden details. A metal scaled rose pin detailed the meticulous design while umbrellas and flashlights as props enforced the character's performance.
Makeup and hairstyle
In order to even the models to a single look, the 20’s and 40’s “bob” hairstyle and eyebrows from the last century was selected for the females, a short classic haircut for the males, it really did the job of placing the runway into a movie set.
