It's been a while since I've encountered any truly otherworldly fashion, so I think it's about time that I stumbled upon something like the Barbara i Gongini AW11 collection. Filled with avant-garde, Gothic designs, this fashion collection is not only perfect for fall, but specifically for the Halloween season.
Comprised of two lines, the Barbara i Gongini AW11 collection features the experimental Main Line and slightly less radical Black Line. Blurring the lines between art and fashion, there is a creepy yet mystical feel behind each piece and look.
This Copenhagen-based powerhouse-of-a-woman is not only responsible for the Barbara i Gongini AW11 designs, she was recently nominated for the Danish Fashion Award Committee's 2010 Ethical Award thanks to her attention to in-house production, recycling and fair trade.
