Walk the Walk: Caitlin Power F/W 2013 Collection

Before Caitlin Power started to work on this collection, she went to Europe to get some new ideas for her brand. On Friday, she presented a collection that was inspired by Parisian architectural.

The collection continues to be futuristic and with a hint of steam punk vibe. It's interesting to see how Caitlin transform the architecture structures into abstract geometric shapes on some of the fashion pieces. As usual, I love the juxtaposed fabrics and textures, and the shade of red in this season is very cool as it adds a masculine feeling to some of the pieces.

Once again, Caitlin Power nailed this collection and this was also one of my favourites shows this season. I can't wait to see what surprise she will bring to the table in the S/S 2014 collection!

P.S Alex Liang (editor in chief of Kenton Magazine) and I have one request and wonder if Caitlin will be up for it: We each want a jacket with the use of that blue leather. Will we get a discount if you do that?

Pros:
- I love how Caitlin absorbs the architecture structures from Europe in mind and translates them in an abstract way on the clothes.
- I am in love with this particular shade of red. It adds a masculine feeling to the clothing.
- There is a steam punk element in this collection and I quite like this flavour. (The finger ring is a good example)
- I love the metallic blue leather. The texture is so interesting.
- The structures of the pieces are very masculine and this adds a bold vibe to the entire collection

Cons:
- I know this might be slightly impossible, but if Caitlin can consider to make a dramatic gown to close the show, that would be perfect (this might become the next big surprise too!)

Eye Candies:
- Red patent leather futuristic blouse
- Red pattern shorts suit
- Black/metallic leather dress
- The finger ring
