St. Petersburg, Russia – Daria Urkineeva, a Russian designer best know for creating art as avant-garde dresses, did some of best work yet for Spring/Summer 2016.
One can find a touch of historical influences of the vertugato style in the new work. The leading shape is the A-line, also with deep V-necks. One can find puffy bishop sleeves and kimono shaped arms. The garments include tunics, capes, dresses, skirts, coats and pants.
All pieces are oversized and don’t show much skin. Some go so far as to even cover the whole body. The light weight fabrics are painted in subdued colours silk. That makes for a flowy, ethereal feel. The dying technique used makes the dresses colour unevenly. The result is the formation of unusual, even disturbing shapes. Some remind of one decaying old costumes. Each one is in itself a unique masterpiece.
The visible details include turtle necks, pleats and various forms of sleeves. The accessories include backpacks, gloves and hats. As a whole the collection maybe suited for clients with artistic taste, yet great for editorial usage and for the theatre as costumes.
