The NICHOLAS K label is made up of designer duo Nicholas and Christopher Kunz – two designers that together have created something very visually exiting. They showcased in New York this Fashion Week as well but I got the chance to catch the Milan Show.
Th collection immediately brings to mind the exploration theme with both the accessories and colour palate evoking ideas of both desserts and urban life. They cite the explorer Isabelle Eberhart a brave woman who left Geneva as a young girl and traveled to North Africa dressed as a man to fight against the injustices of colonial rule and help the poor. The pieces are powerful, designed for a strong, powerful woman. There are some truly interesting pieces and I particularly liked the jackets – both the shawl-style ones and the shorter more biker-influenced-style.
