Objects in the distance appear compressed and stretched, and it's hard to tell what's real. Lines of packed beading and bursts of sequins twinkled on the runway; on cotton as crisp and clear as the sky, these details were mesmerising like distant mirages. A plethora of ties in the back – on halter tops and wrap skirts and even belts – proved that there's more to a look than initially meets the eye.Feet first: Although Chris said the collection was inspired by "the fantasy of travel to nowhere," we know what we want to come with us on our next trip: Creatures' woven platform mules. Last season Creatures of the Wind debuted a serene collection inspired by traditional Japan.
