Gareth Pugh

Key Quote from style.com:
“The designer’s new silhouette—falling away in a pleated-back A-line from a small shoulder—was the direct inverse of the triangular shape that made his name. It gave a swirling, capelike volume to coats and jackets.”

His show was also streamed live in the web. Watch it here:

Devastee

Key Quote from Diane Pernet (ashadedviewinfashion.com):
“There were some of their own jacquard design with Francois’s art work his signature illustrated prints which always have unique sense of humor and lazar cut out smilies.”

Kris van Asche

Key Quote from style.com:
“Sharp-looking cropped jackets and slouchy long johns (modified from Van Assche’s men’s show) were teamed with either sheer button-downs or thin turtlenecks. Wrapping was a unifying theme, with buttonless trenchcoats, blazers, and vests tied off at the waist.”
