http://www.vogue.com.au/club+vogue/competitions/gary+bigeni+giveaway,569gary bigeni giveawayDistinguished by the emotional maturity of his designs; Gary Bigeni’s autumn winter 2012 collection Paper Cut Thin is his most engaging collection to date. Loosening his impeccable restraint, Bigeni interprets the complexities of emotion through a dynamic mix of print, texture and a focus on considered layering.
Enlivening a print from the archives, Bigeni has customised a polka dot in contrasting hues of orange, navy and ivory. Layered spots are deliberately misaligned, mimicking the effects of double vision to appear uniform and abstract all at once. This bold print energises the fresh suiting and minimalist style of the Gary Bigeni repertoire.
Contrasting textures of merino wool, leather and silk blends illustrate the multi-dimensional approach to this collection as silhouettes provide further context to the range’s intrinsic composition. Buttoned collars are exposed underneath scoop necks and slinky dresses are balanced by heavier bespoke coats. Knits take on a new form with an open-lattice weave that reveals what is beneath; emphasising the depth of layering.
Bigeni further heightens the collection’s intricacy by harmonizing a moody palette that spans from monochrome to vibrant earthy hues; building light and shade through tonal narratives and clashing stories of colour. The many facets of this collection are anchored by sleek draped cuts, the core of Bigeni’s design aesthetic, which reflect the fluidity of mankind’s fickle disposition.
To celebrate the release of this latest collection, Gary Bigeni is offering vogue.com.au members the chance to win one of five $500 gift vouchers to spend at www.garybigeni.comView the latest lookbook on vogue.com.au.
