Cortana
Cortana’s designs were inspired by the theatre, with her face-painted
models wearing shades of black and white. The idea was to force
one to admire the feminine, flowing clothes, which partly worked.
Cortana’s design philosophy is about individual freedoms, so wearers
are permitted to wear her clothes in unique ways.
What we did like was the way the fabrics—often
silks and Lycra—flowed on the catwalk. Cortana understands draping
techniques and used them subtly. Lighter shades were in evidence
throughout although, once again, black and white were the staple
colours for her autumn–winter.
