ELEVON - 4 Days To Go

A while back we brought to your attention the new exciting fashion event in town that is Elevon. Now it's just less than a week away from the show, which is being held at the Vermont Hotel on Friday 18th October. The event will showcase the best up-and-coming talent from around the world, including London-based Jessica Lucille Tait, Fitri Alamasjah from Indonesia and local menswear/womenswear designer Natali Dufferwiel.

Here's a little more about these designers to get you all excited before the show...

Jessica Lucille Tait

For classic feminine workwear pieces, check out these beautiful separates by recently graduated Jessica Lucille Tait. The aim of her womenswear range is to create comfortable yet stylish pieces which adhere to company dress policy, and we love her fresh, wearable approach to vintage-influenced fashion. She gets bonus points for keeping an eagle-eye on the stunning costumes on Downton Abbey, as you can see on her social media!

Fitri Alamsjah

We love the feminine geometric style of Fitri Alamsjah's 'Flawless Haru' collection ('Haru' meaning spring where the sakura starts to bloom). The simplicity of her garments show off the origami detailing to perfection, and we love how the collection is so pure and romantic! She applies a similar style detail in her main line which is available online, with gorgeous summery coloured tops and dresses adorned with simple yet effective folding techniques.

Natalie Dufferwiel

Last but not least, check out Natalie Dufferwiel's edgy works. Specialising in both womenswear and menswear, her clothing is shown to be dark and dramatic with a dominatrix twist. Her latest collection, which will be showcased at Elevon and inspired by Gareth Pugh, sets to be just as impressive with elements of futurism in her designs.
