Nouvelle Real is about the authenticity and strength of the modern woman. Individual and purposeful – sometimes even a little brutal, but with a confidence to reject stereotypical and clichéd representations of femininity.
It has a military theme with a 80s vibe that reflects current times, while at the same time, exploring androgyny and non-gendered haircuts.
This wondrous collection was inspired by the beauty and sweetness of nature. To see, smell, taste and touch is a real joy and Noel Halligan wanted to put these feelings into an image – with soft and hard textures juxtaposed, using copper color to add flavour and fluidity to the collection.
The 'Tataki Blond' features a dreamy, fabulous look – precision and thoroughness are the key words for success in order to achieve a subtle and elegant result. Glamour, rock, pop, relaxed or sophisticated. Each style has its own personality, allowing each woman to be unique.
Strolling through the palace gardens in France was a common activity in the 18th century. Flowers and animals inspired couturiers to create the best fabrics for the French bourgeoisie. Prints that not only maximized the extraordinary dresses of this period, but also covered the walls and tapestries of the houses.
With this collection Barry Maddocks wanted to fixate on the craft of each look, whilst ensuring there were beautiful podiums for the heads to sit on. Employing rich colors with muted overtones, Maddocks created editorial styles with a wearable aesthetic.
