Trend Report: Shiny Surfaces

September 18, 2012



London Fashion Week is still underway, and as always, it's a great incubator of ideas. We're starting to see a metallic thread shine through many of the collections, ranging from hyper-reflective sci-fi surfaces that look like liquid metal to more subtle sheen. Jonathan Saunders (above) led the pack, sending ’70s disco babes down the runway in metallic A-line skirts. Check out other designers who incorporated the look in a variety of textures, silvery dresses and oily overalls, below.
