Introducing Omar Mansoor S/S13












 First of all I must thank Omar for letting me share these images with everyone in this blog!! And also for designing a beautifully wearable collection which makes me want every single piece. I hope you all like the Collection as much as I do :D

Here's a little bit of history ;)

Omar Mansoor’s sixth London Fashion Week collection has taken an unexpected turn from glamorous elegant ball gowns and immersed himself into the boho aesthetic of East London. Inspired by the Shoreditch style, this collection lends itself to the most wearable of his work to date. After being predominantly known forthe design of extravagant ball gowns, he turns his talent to casual wear, working inhis usual exaggerated over-embellishment into this collection with ease.

Layering intricate lace work and fine knitwear, Omar always keeps immaculate attention to detail. Opting for a modern vintage colour palette derived from urban London, the collection uses the clutter of East London and the culture it is home to as the core stimulus. Omar has explored new fabrics creating show-stopping fluid silhouettes, complimenting the womanly figure. Taking inspiration from the creative hub of Shoreditch, this collection adds a new dimension to his brand, adopting the innovative medium of the casual-couture style.
