MOYAAH 2012 Collection | Heritage

This is my second collection entitled Heritage...

african print dress green dress cowl shoulders, black crop jacket moyaah
yellow african print dress blue african print pleated dress pink african print skirt moyaah


blue african print jumpsuit blue african print trousers pants black crop jacket moyaah
green african print shorts bright accessories african print accessories black pleated jacket with large hood moyaah
Inspiration came mainly from architect Zaha Hadid's work. Her buildings are extremely beautiful and cleverly structured, with so much detail. I particularly liked her buildings with lots of line detail and soft curves. I used the line details in her- and other creative buildings- to experiment with pleating and the gorgeous curved shapes in the buildings, particularly the Oceanografic building in Valencia, which was the inspiration for the soft curved panelling throughout the collection. The palette is black with a mix of bright bold African prints in the designs of modern, contemporary, playful dresses with flared inserts, a high waisted skirt, cute shorts, a crop jacket and jacket with an oversized hood. I made all of the accessories too. My favourite? Oh gosh! I can't decide... I LOVE them all lol!

So, what do you guys think about my collection? Do you have a favourite piece?
