SIMONE ROCHA’S S/S12 Collection, her third since graduating from the MA in St. Martins in 2010, develops further the reactions of fabrication and texture, fresh femininity and masculine strength. Simone continues to find inspiration in the work and worlds of Louise Bourgeois. 

 

Materials: Exploring the tension of masculinity and femininity, emphasized in the fabrications of silk, rubber and plastics, stretch cotton, tulle and antique embroideries, creating new surfaces, trapping textures one inside the other, contrasting density and delicacy, antique and modern. 

 

Silhouettes: Fragile and Strong. Precisely tailored pieces, structure collaged together, contrast with fiercely pretty biased shapes and controlled volume in treated lace and embroidered silk.

 

Colour: A palette of off white, black and nude with highlights of hot green, pink and scarlet.

Super cool, lace and net T - top.  The lace sections are trapped between fine net layers at front, back and in the sleeves. Neck, hem and sleeves are finished with a refined baby lock stitch. Opens at back neck with delicate keyhole button fastening.  A light boxy feminine fit.
