PARIS, July 6 (Reuters) – Viktor & Rolf targeted on fits for the label’s high fashion runway present in Paris on Wednesday, exhibiting a group of them in outrageous proportions earlier than reshaping them into female silhouettes.
Transformation was the purpose of the Dutch design duo Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren, whose eponymous label belongs to Italian vogue group OTB.
“We wished one thing rigorous, one thing inflexible, so we appeared to males’s tailoring,” Snoeren stated in an interview. “We did not simply need to present an excessive silhouette, in fact. We wished a brand new silhouette.”

The present opened with age-old basic pinstriped, navy blue and white fits. The primary jacket was barely cropped and paired with pleated trousers, the subsequent one double-breasted.
Then proportions modified, with jacket shoulders splaying out to the perimeters like shellsfloating across the fashions’ our bodies. Some shoulders had been naked, whereas different seems had collars as much as the chin.
Fashions stomped down the runway in chunky platform heels to pulsating techno music in shimmery tuxedo jackets and trench coats and crisp, striped males’s shirts.
Midway via the present, the music stopped and the designers attended to a lone mannequin onstage, pulling out wiring from her jacket, gently changing her heels with flats and turning up the additional cloth that turned an upright ruffle.
“It is necessary for us to point out the ability of transformation,” stated Horsting.
