Suzaan Heyns - Doors of Perception

on Sunday, March 10, 2013
The Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week A/W 2013 descended on Johannesburg these last couple of days again. I was fortunate enough to attend the Suzaan Heyns show, which delivered in every single way. The show was inspired by doors and labyrinth alleyways and a procession of doors were part of the runway......intriguing.... 

Drone-like models strutted down the runway to a narrative soundtrack especially created for the show. Cork as a fabric was incorporated into the clothing as well as in the handbags and shoes. The colour palette of the collection was peapod green, deep blues, titanium, white and chocolate and was accented by hues of blue, muted yellow, peony and russet. 

The structured jackets and coats in blues and greens were my favourites and the gorgeous leggings and skirts make for a great addition to any wardrobe.

 The show was an all round sensory experience, which was enjoyed by all. I cannot wait to see what this talented South African designer has in store for us in future.
