MARY KATRANTZOU S/S 09
Mary Katrantzou is a Greek-born fashion designer based in London.She has worked with Sophia Kokosalaki and studied at the Rhode Island School of design before transferring to Central Saint Martins to complete a BA in Textile Design. She was influenced mostly by constructivism in the 70s, and her designs create the illusion of wearing impossibly disproportionate necklaces, which lie halfway between reality and fictio. This because she use enlarged and oversized jewellery prints on dresses and also produced oversized weighty jewellery that work as ensembles with the dresses. For her current collection She has also used denim in parts of the dresses and she has combined her unique prints with pop icons and brilliant colours.
