Walk the Walk: SOMARTA F/W 2012 Collection

I love when a runway show can tell a story, because now you know what's behind the designer's mind.

SOMARTA F/W 2012 is a very interesting collection. I believe the inspiration is from nature as you can see a lot of insect prints or shapes throughout the show. I am very impressed with the "insect" gowns as a lot of designers do fail to wow the audience when it comes to this inspiration. Furthermore, Hirokawa has a well balance of wearable and non wearable pieces that can truly show her craftsmanship and image of the brand!

Overall, this is one memorable collection in Japan Fashion Week!

Pros:
- The presentation is so well done. From black to nude, then to red, this rundown just tells the story of this collection.
- I love the colour palette, especially the red colour.
- The last few "insect" gowns are unique and beautiful. Definitely new to my eyes.
- Tamae Hirokawa has both wearable and non-wearable pieces on the runway, which really helps to show her skills and brand image. Very well balanced!

Cons:
- The print tights, they don't look too good on a few looks.

Eye Candies:
- Red puff cropped jacket
- Red "insect" gown
- Nude puff sleeveless coat
