COLLECTION | Dora Abodi


















Where to start with the exquisite Dora Abodi AW15 collection?

A mystical battle of the next instalment of ‘Cult of the Twin Unisus’ sees Abodi present extra-terrestrial creatures clad in explosive crystal prints, deconstructed metallic fabric with sheer billowing trains, flowing down runway alongside a life sized Pegasus.
Taking inspiration from science fiction, klubkid grunge and dark goth, metallic components of robots encapsulate an insight in to the fragile borders between innocence and sin, light and dark.

Holographic moon clutches compliment the dark dazzling, glitter eye makeup and feathery, disordered, plaited hair with pleather knee high boots elongating the enchantresses towering physiques.

Being ethically conscious to not use real fur or any materials from uncontrolled origin we saw faux fur pastel coats and deep navy feathered garments. Embellished unicorn sweaters and distinctive digital prints continue the theme of a fearless, majestic; female in timeless harmony with a mix of block colours contrasting with black Adobi perfectly executed her unearthly vision.
