After a Barbie (by David Dixon) takes Carnaby Street opener of mod shifts and swing coats and a prosecco/Peroni interlude, David Dixon presented a fall collection inspired by tribal techniques and materials. The theme translated to silk and wool cocktail dresses accented with raffia and leather basket woven into bustiers and skirts.
Dixon always has a few textile tricks up his sleeve and this lineup’s standout fabric was a wool studded with shards of mirror that sparkled on the skirts and collars of a trio of little black dresses. “Moth jacquard” gave coats and cropped trousers a mottled look and hand cut organza added a feather effect to the closing silk chiffon gown.
