Angus Chiang AW17 – The playful student

This season’s collection was inspired by 90s electronic music style and hip-hop culture, featuring a large amount of heart shaped symbols, zippers and accessories. Models walked into the catwalk wearing  quirky earrings, armed with giant rubber shoes -all teamed with eye catching outfits in vibrant colours such as orange, green, blue and bright pink which broke the rough denim. head piece was a hat made of artificial fur and created a dynamic and unique student hairstyle look. Composite materials, acrylic, and various school supplies such as pens, measuring tapes and more were used to highlight the pieces.
