There is a spare, almost severe minimalist and ascetic tone to the work of Dion Lee. One that is touched with a hint of fantastical romanticism that bubbles up to the surface in surprising and frankly. gorgeous ways. Spring '16 saw that romantic streak tempered more so than usual and the more stark tendencies of Lee's design highlighted. With a colour scheme devoted mostly to White, Black and Red, this element was the most successful of the collection. Razor sharp cuts gave a relentlessly tough edge to most garments, while the angular asymmetry provided more futurist momentum to the modern looks. When Lee indulged himself in fringing and looping and ruffles, the looks fell short and seemed oddly, out of place. In the end, it was a strong showing for Lee, but one that could have used a more critical eye and way of thinking.
That's All.
