Rock chick, goth inspired, dark, edgy, strong - are all words that spring to mind about California-born designer Rick Owens. This season, Owens took that look once step further by developing an even more powerful and frightening woman and this time she is a warrior god.
Owens staged his show in the Palis de Challot in his usual dark and eery setting. Known for his extensive range of outerwear, he used fabrics like fur, metallic, wool and his trademark leather to create a rough tribal look consisting of structured second-skin jackets, wrap dresses, jersey skirts, zig zag leggings, fur rimmed boots, horn sequins capes and leather gloves. He maintained his usual colour pallette of black and grey with a splash of white. Hair was wild and scraped back while make-up included pale skin, dark black eyes and bleached eyebrows to create an almost untouchable look.
With a lot of pretty and feminine collections around, Owens is always a nice contrast with his different take on dressing a powerful woman. Teamed together, his collection may not be the most wearable (at least not where I live!) but there was a large array of individual items in particular jackets that will no doubt keep his legion of fans happy for another season.
