When first taking in these images of the Louise Amstrup S/S 2010 collection, my first thought was ‘threatening.’ Perhaps this was because the first outfit I took in was a bodysuit that had sharp spikes protruding from its shoulders. However, I quickly recalled the number of interesting shoulder-centric designs that have been featured on Trend Hunter and quickly calmed myself down. Oh, and I also noted that they weren’t actual metal spikes.
Stepping away from her usual soft shapes, the Louise Amstrup S/S 2010 collection is all severe lines and structure. I like it, do you?
