Thakoon AW14

Initial reaction:

Innovative knitwear exploration with bright blue-and-pink floral prints. A colourful breath among the monochromatic takes on fall this season.
 
Runway:

A bright stripe of pink roses floating in deep purple dressed up the runway backdrop.
 
Unexpected knits:

Snug tweed shrugs, asymmetrical capelets, pink tweed funnel neck scarves and angora shoulder toppers brought knitwear to new, sculptural levels.
 
Music:

A live performance of Jeff Buckley's cover of "Hallelujah" set a sleepy, contemplative tone, but it was a sweet surprise when the audience on the track started to cheer and clap right as the finale began.
 
Caution:

A criss-cross walking pattern made for a bit of stop-and-go--but models deftly avoided collision.
