Veronica Basharatyan London College of Fashion Graduate unveils her Heidmork collection at Fashion Scout inspired by the Icelandic Nature Conservation.
Inspiration for the collection; Iceland with a beautiful haunting Emiliana Torrini Soundtrack to the show.
Main Colours; An eclectic palette of icy hues such as pastel blue, light greys and creams with flashes of bright red and forest green. The collection was also enhanced by the Peroxide bobs and metallic lip and nail palette.
Features; a recurring feature of many of the AW14 collection is attention to the back of the garment. Sheer back knits and sleek silhouettes were juxtaposed with oversized mohair detailing and heavy drapes.
This collection was beautiful and really encapsulated the essence of Basharatyan’s influence. The Mohair caped jacket and Mac were particularly stunning and wearable. Tailored garments mixed with oversized cardigans gives an eclectic and varied depth.

Ong-Oaj Pairam was back at Fashion Scout this year to showcase his third collection. This included both Womenswear and Menswear and he took his inspirations from super-villians.
Ong-Oaj Pairam originally from Thailand studied Fashion Design at Brighton University
Main inspiration for the collection; Ursula from The Little Mermaid and The dark artistry of Charley Harper
Main Colours: Deep purples and Forest Greens interspersed with Neon Orange, Yellows and Cobalt Blue
Fabrics used: Ong prefers British Textiles and a heavy feature was PVC, Hand Embroidery and flowing Silk Gowns
This has been my favourite collection at Fashion Week so far, the collection was beautiful and the staple dark colours of grey and black with flashes of block colour and neons, cobalt blue appear to be a huge trend for AW14. Pairam’s use of neon was inspired by warning colours of exotic animals and the use of PVC and detailing on the more tailored pieces seem to be evocative of his inspiration Charley Harper. Some stunning flowing gowns mixed with tailored twin sets and the highlight of the show was the Neon Orange Mens Edge to Edge jacket.

ONG-OAJ PAIRAM LAUNCHES NEW AW14 COLLECTION FOLLOWING A SUCESSFUL CATWALK SHOW
British-Thai designer Ong-Oaj Pairam showcased his third season yesterday during a successful runway show at Fashion Scout, Freemasons Hall. The show explored a fascination with danger, dreaming up an army of seductive super villains inspired by the designer’s all-time favourite anti-hero Ursula from the Little Mermaid and was attended by Binky, Louise and Mark from Made In Chelsea.
Ong-Oaj uses the finest British textiles and original prints, many pieces accented with hours of hand embroidery. The colour pallet reflects the warning markings of dangerous animals, dark sultry dresses are accented with toxic bright outwear and metallic snakeskin accessories. Ong-Oaj developed his prints drawing on inspiration from the darker works of American modernist artist Charlie Harper, and through an exploration of toxic animals and plants.
