Photography Virginia ArcaroFashion / ShowAcne Studios AW15Getting inspired by photographer Viviane Sassen, with ornate nose rings and Stephen Jones millineryShareLink copied ✔️March 9, 2015FashionShowTextLakeisha GoedluckPhotographyVirginia ArcaroAcne Studios AW15 Initial reaction: Jonny Johansson’s point of reference this season was Dutch photographer Viviane Sassen, and the unique tones in her work – inspired by a childhood spent in Africa. Tough techno: A hard techno-heavy soundtrack echoed the robust quality of the materials used – like mocha leather and staunch, flecked tweed. Exposed top stitches and unfinished hems roughened up the skin-tight looks, which were finished with large, ornate nose rings, brown visor shades and oversized failsworth hats designed by Stephen Jones – sported by the likes of Olympia Campbell. Stand out look: A skin-coloured mesh top worn bra-less and paired with patched, high-waisted blue trousers that looked like they’d been created from recycled fabric.
