'The shimmering moonlight drizzled.' is how I wish to describe this surprisingly romantic collection even with her unsurprising dark colour theme. And yet, believe it or not the inspiration here is - Kill Bill - where East meet West. Influencing by the Japanese traditional fashion and culture, the complex layering of their traditional fashion, Vera intended to use this language to convey the complexity of women through her fashion. Kimono blouse, Japanese floral print of silk wool Geisha dress, obi dresses, chiffon origami blouse, and so on, are all in the language of Japanese fashion; where hand-ruched draped gown with train, sheer organza, faille coat, all the twisting and wrapping are all about complexity of the fashion, or of the women.
