Backstage Diaries: Louise Goldin
The words, ‘Knitwear,’ ‘Armour’ and ‘Luxury’ may not sound like the kind of combination people immediately think of but this year we saw some fantastic clothing in just that style as we were backstage hanging out with the team for Louise Goldin.
Louise Goldin has really embraced the knit - her A/W 09 collection was all black and woven together with black leather and fur. Beautifully structured silhouettes which would actually look great in real life. No longer do jumpers just mean keeping warm and cosying up, the luxury knit is here and we like!
Backstage at Louise Goldrin Models were made up to look artifical and robotic with the L’Oreal hair team creating hairstyles which were long and fixed with all sorts of great fixing sprays. The hair emulated the head stylists own with the addition of a strategically placed blunt fake fringe acting as a futuristic ‘visor.’ Louise’s looks were structured and robotic, channeling an artificial feel (think Bladerunner.) Flashes of royal blue adourned the eyes of the models giving a funky eye-wear look.
sip enjoyed the show - we got chatting to one of the super gorgeous models who was enjoying sip so we uploaded a video of her doing her thing - take a look!
London Fashion Week asked Louise ‘What is inspiring you at the moment?’ “Eskimos, the Arctic and Mars.”
