The Alistair Trung FW 2012 collection was debuted at the L’Oreal Melbourne fashion festival. The series features a myriad of elegant drapery and feathery detailing. Though silhouettes favor exaggerated proportions, fabrics and colors are simple maintaining the wearable element of the series. The piles of fabric and spontaneous compilations evoke a sense of movement, emphasizing the delicate aspects of the models’ bodies. Memorable moments from the show include a Cousin It-esque hair mask, feather-adorned arm warmers and an asymmetrical fur hat.
Alistair Trung says on his site, "I’d like to make clothes that doesn’t give women a nervous breakdown." The designer’s work is emotionally charged, lending fans a thick, carefree attitude. The Alistair Trung FW 2012 collection emphasizes the sensuality of the female form in a curation of romantic pieces.
