Matthew Williamson 2010

Matthew Williamson Spring/Summer 2010 was an array of colours and materials. He used many different techniques such as; boning, gathering and structured tailoring to create a vibrant and up-to date look. What specifically interested me were the array of materials Williamson used.

The most stand out choice was sequins, however Williamson did not spontaneously throw sequins onto his gowns but instead used them to create intricate patterns.

Williamson also used silk and an iridescent material throughout as one of the main base materials. This material reflected the light and created a sense of movement and fluidity in the more structured pieces due to the light reflections.

This one dress caught my attention as i feel that the way the dress has used gathering and a central bone,means it looks like the bone structure of a vertebrate- specifically that of a fish and snake.
