London-based designer Roberts | Wood presented an ethereal, almost hypnotic presentation this morning in the Institute of Contemporary Arts. A largely monochrome palette with the merest whisper of pale peach and navy, the show struck the perfect balance between the timeless and the avant-garde.lfw-ss17-roberts-i-wood-krish-nagari-the-upcoming-2The designs ranged from the minimal and the structured, to the airy and the ruffled.  Bold, sculpted black and white separates were layered together; an oversized black bib hanging over a white shirt and trouser combo, a black skirt wrapped over trousers, a dress tied at the waist over a contrasting t-shirt.  lfw-ss17-roberts-i-wood-krish-nagari-the-upcoming-7Elsewhere, clean and minimal designs were infused with a certain flare by clever detailing; an oversized bow tied at the arm of a voluminous white shirt dress, for example. 

 

At the other end of the spectrum, the designer offered a series of sensual, romantic pieces centred around sheer fabrics and oversized ruffles. A strappy, navy dress comprising entirely of tulle tufts on a sheer slip offered a daringly teasing view of the body beneath. lfw-ss17-roberts-i-wood-krish-nagari-the-upcoming-10Meanwhile, a sheer peach jumpsuit left the body completely exposed, whilst giant folds of fabric along the arms and legs created a striking silhouette. lfw-ss17-roberts-i-wood-krish-nagari-the-upcoming-8Somewhere in between the structured and the translucent, there were wearable monochrome dresses with sheer overlays at the skirt and neckline. lfw-ss17-roberts-i-wood-krish-nagari-the-upcoming-3It was stylish, romantic presentation from the designer – one that offered something for every taste.
