Taking a step-back from his loud digital prints from last season, Eugene Lin has focussed his latest collection on clean, structured pattern-cutting with inspiration being drawn from Valkyries of Norse mythology.

A runway show full of pure whites, loud colour pops and immaculate pattern-cutting, Lin’s showcase was a complete set of outfits that anyone could pull straight from the catwalk and make their own. From neat high-waisted trousers and mid-length skirts to structured strapless dresses and a precision-cut orange jacket worn with nothing underneath, each piece spoke for itself.

But while the whole collection was stunning, a few pieces really stole the show. The first look to appear from behind the white walls at the Fashion Scout hall was a stunning crisp white t-shirt and pleated mini skirt combination; clean, elegant and chic. While a more vibrant pumpkin orange shift dress with structured, boxy skirt and side pockets on precision cut fabric took the dress to a whole new level of sophistication. However, more detailed pieces were sent down the runway in the form of sharp black jackets and trouser suits featuring feather prints which were inspired by the wings of a Valkyrie – female spirits of battle who could transform into swans.

This season Lin presented a showcase of deluxe ready-to-wear pieces that would make any woman proud to adorn; he is going from strength to strength and we love his direction.
