SOPHISTICATED
时尚领域中来自非洲的元素愈来愈活跃。例如带非洲部落特色的纹理和图案成为时装周最受追捧的民族风,在著名设计师的作品中不断进入时尚界的公众视野中。如今,非洲元素不仅仅局限于非洲部落特色元素,更深入拓展于非洲异端文化元素,打造了一系颇具非洲风情的服饰。
不可否认的是,非洲异端宗教、萨满巫术以及占卜术是非洲文化中不可割裂的一部分并存在于非洲海地及加勒比海群岛地区。近日,Rebel Yuths的设计师Damier Johnson在品牌最新的ORISHA系列中体现了非洲异端文化。不难发现,该系列以非洲式图腾,宗教符号和非洲巫术仪式上的巫师为主打基调,多样化的色彩,矩阵式的排列让这些传统图纹传递出一种时尚神秘气息。
据悉,本季服装将于9月正式登陆维也纳时装周。
