Own line RICHARD QUINN

concept title:

Cracked Couture

Concept:

Richard Quinn is deconstructing traditional couture images of the past. The clothes of his collection look like juxtaposed collages made from ripped pages of fashion magazines, creating an entirely new, modern couture that references the past. He hand painted his clothes as if he were a painter standing in front of a blank canvas, pairing this technique with screen printing and embroidery. Each dress is a mix of shape and texture, made to look like they were torn in half and re-attached.
