FASHION COLLECTIONS

REVELATION Collection, Autumn-Winter 2002/3

 
The Revelation a.w.2002.3 collection features a cool colour palette: teal and ice blue, dark moss green, deep wine. Vibrant green covered in frost, white, gold and cool cream. Gorgeous fabrics and textures: soft knits, rugged leather, silk, and brocade.
 
These are classically designed clothes with plenty of twists. There are casually tailored cut pants with a wide brocade cuff, a funky blue and brown leather mini skirt with peacock blue silk ruffling from a side slit, a sexy silk dress cut on the bias with a playful checkerboard pattern in cream and gold. A bodice gripping leather halter delicately hand embroidered.  JTP created many of her own unique textiles for this collection – she boldly digitally printed designs based on industrial steel pipes onto silk creating an aquatic, romantic and flowing feeling.
 
The collection serves as a metaphor for the need to look more deeply beyond what we first see, to discover what is really there.
