Biba’s fourth season at London Fashion Week showed how much the label has grown over the years and what better place than Claridge’s ballroom to show their new look.
The autumn/winter 2008-9 collection was the perfect balance between the past and future drawing on inspiration from the artists Gustav Klimt and Camille Rose Garcia.
The highly textural, embellished fabrics were dramatic and glamorous. There were sequins, graphic prints, organic shapes, velvet, tweed and metallic flecked wool throughout the show.
With a colour palette of midnight blues, greys and blacks injected with red, teal, turquoise and fuchsia it was anything but boring. The nature theme was evident throughout the show as models sashayed down the runway in dresses with rose petal construction, rounded shaped skirts with ruffles and voluminous blouses.
