Orla Kiely A/W 2012 Presentation

The themes in this years Orla Kiely A/W 2012 presentation was preppy tailoring, pretty prints and mixed textures with a 60s twist. 


Inspired by the film "To Sir with Love" the fashion presentation was in the style of an 'Afternoon Dance'. Models sat patiently on chairs clutching their retro style handbags and purses till they were asked to waltz, twist or side-step the floor which made for some fabulous photographs for the blogosphere!

This range was a small departure from the usual Orla Kiely collection, with a brown leather shift dress and a glitter puff ball skirt. Boundaries pushed! (We kid). 
The prints this season are inspired by nature so expect to see lots of mini fox prints and autumnal colours. Apart from the fabulous twenties art deco feel to the presentation, I would say it is business as normal for Orla Kiely.

  1. Oh God, it doesn't get any better than that! Poor models, though. Now they have to act and dance, too?
