AMINAKA WILMONT S/S 11

This week I was invited to the press event for the Aminaka Wilmont 'PSYCHE' Spring/Summer 11 collection. 

Now how can I describe what I saw?  Fantastic? awesome? as you know I only write about things I like and what I think you will like, so here it is a bold butterly based collection which is totally wearable with beautiful colour palettes.

Cascading crepe de chine delicately wraps and twists unpredictably, falling and turning to reveal the soft pastel colour palette.  Bold textures and structure punctuate the ethereal silhouette with unexpected bursts of monochrome further embracing the dream thematic.

The collection delves into surrealism producing a fusion of delicate playful fabrics and strong silouhettes.  Marcus Wilmont Creative Director of Aminaka Wilmont says "Its is by far our boldest and most diverse collection and we are really excited to see everyone's reaction" .  My reaction? going back to how I was describe what I saw? sheer brilliance!!
