COLLECTIONS| VFS Press-Day Picks at Modus PR






Two collections struck us as we entered the Modus PR showroom; the first being that of Central Saint Martin's grad, J. JS Lee. Lee's Autumn/Winter looks are sharp in their simplicity, with a modernity derived from the minimal, "cloud-cast-shadow" inspired palette. It's this modernity, with the shadow of embossed, traditional details that's already seen her featured in various international editions of VOGUE, and ELLE.

Unsurprisingly, the second collection we found ourselves drawn to was that of SS10 Merit Award winner, David Koma. The Georgian-born designer has amassed an international following since then, and we're exceptionally proud to express our continued support. Our Autumn/Winter Koma favourites are these Quilici-collaborated, greyhound heels inspired by "the fastest and most elegant dogs in the world". The metal-sculpted heels share the hound motif of the collection's intarsia knits, and belted waists' buckled details, and we expect these accessories to make "most coveted" lists come Autumn/Winter 2012.
