Image 1 Image 2

Irina Shaposhnikova is a new and emerging designer from Antwerp. She has produced her graduate collection, 'Crystallographica', based on crystallised forms. The collection has a strong geometrical feel and incorporates use of line and accentuated form. The garments work with the female form by exaggerating feminine elements. They incorporate pointedly hips and exaggerated shoulders, creating a futuristic twist on the classic ‘hour-glass figure’.
