Tulle, tulle and some more tulle! Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren are masters of unusual fabric combinations and today, it was mighty clear that the holistic collection would take part of this lifelong motto!

Layers of fabrics took over trousers, forming some sort of an elegant-meets-ripped pattern. Colorful ruffles invaded dresses in the most extravagant kind of ways, harnessing a deconstructed tailoring and unusual proportions that beautifully disturbed the balance.

The designs all bore the duo’s desire to stand out from the crowd as looks took on a special lingo, one that would express the need to push the boundaries- of course, in terms of fabrics and structure. But it was not until the end that the duo shifted gears, pedaling through puffy strapless tulle gowns, all the while staying true to their symbolic insignia; an insignia that meant that the mix-and-match of fabrics was here to stay and so was the deconstruction. Only these two designers could yield such untethered beauty to deconstructed art!
