Katarina Rimarcikova is a good friend and supporter of Fashion Installation. So, i was more than happy when receiving the press kit of her new collection that was presented during Paris Fashion Week.
The collection entitled
Death Becomes Her is inspired by memories of a male friend that became a woman and the physical and psychological tranformations through this journey.
Using her deep knowledge in menswear tailoring, Katarina created a great collection of dresses, coats, pants, blouses and skirts with short, feminine hemlines, with polymorphous silhouettes and well-constructed pleats.
The fine materials vary from pure silk to layers of fine mesh and leather, while the bright red, black and grey colour combinations give a theatrical note to the whole collection.
