“PARADISE LOST” – Wilson PK’s SS16 collection is inspired by Dante’s “Divine Comedy”. Contrasting Art Deco with the notion of Christianity, the collection portrays the inner turbulence of the designer’s religious beliefs, whilst engaging with the psychedelic romance of his work.
Using waves, texture and colour, Wilson tears apart the conventions of Art Deco, creating a collection that uses minimalist surrealism resulting in a sense of effortlessness.
This season offers invisible yarn-mixed cotton knit tops, flared pants, cocktail and floor-length dresses. Teaming up with Stoll, Wilson PK has created unique knitwear using Italian cotton and invisible yarn, allowing for laser cut marble, art-deco beads and reflective acrylic to be inserted into the garments.
Working alongside FABBERZ LONDON, the designer has created unique and luxury laser cut pieces for the collection. From heat press gemstone jumpsuits to batwing tops, the collection features transformative yet highly functional pieces that remain distinctive.
Key colours in the collection include vanilla cream, emerald green, lipstick pink, peach and tangerine. These colours are accented by metallic hues and marble patterns and contrasted with structured monotones.
