Leather-Infused Frock Fashions

The Dora Abodi FW 2012 Collection is Daring and Flirty

— March 31, 2012 — Fashion
The Dora Abodi FW 2012 collection of frock is hugely fierce and flirtatious. With rising hemlines and exotic fabrics, these dresses are alluring and superbly sultry. The pieces are rendered either from dyed leathers or full layered feathering. Each dress is highly structural, pushing towards an architectural base. The amazon motif is achieved through bright color combinations and eccentric silhouettes with bulbous skirts and round shoulders.

All Dora Abodi pieces are ethically made, avoiding 'fast' fashion, outsourcing and animal products. The company also handcrafts materials for the perfect fit. The brand recently produced its own material for leggings and went on to design the mysterious 'Flying Unicorns and Skulls' fabric.

Memorable pieces from the Dora Abodi FW 2012 include a full-feathered frock reminiscent of exotic birds, studded leather collars and elegant floor-length skirts in royal colors.
Trend Themes
1. Ethical Fashion - Opportunity for disruption in the fashion industry by redefining the value chain with ethical sourcing, production processes and disposal methods.
2. Animal-free Fashion - Opportunity for disruption in the fashion industry by using alternative materials to leather and fur, such as plant-based or lab-grown materials.
3. Exotic Fabric Fusion - Opportunity for disruption in the fashion industry by exploring unique combinations of fabrics and textures to create distinctive and eye-catching designs.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion - With the rise of conscious consumerism, fashion companies can differentiate themselves by adopting ethical practices and offering animal-free options.
2. Textile Manufacturing - Innovations in textile manufacturing can support the production of animal-free materials with a focus on sustainability, such as using recycled or biodegradable fibers.
3. Interior Design - Exotic fabric fusion can also be applied to home decor and interior design to create unique and bold styles for customers seeking higher-end options for their home decoration.
