Visual Feast by Danny de la Cruz

I remember seeing a Matty Bovan collection for the first time a few seasons ago during a Fashion East event at Old Spitafields Market. I was in awe that first time and that awe hasn’t subsided. For Autumn/Winter 2018, talk about a feast for the visual senses! How do I even begin to describe a collection filled with patterns, layers, textures, a range of fabrics manipulated and reinterpretted, hand bag accessories, unique facial painting, head caps, and wait for it, balloons floating atop the heads of the models as they paraded down the catwalk? I won’t even try. Take a look for yourself at the wonderful moments captured exclusively by Contributing Photographer Ashanti Jason.
