Kaal E Suktae Fall/Winter 2014: Seoul Fashion Week

Kaal E Suktae's Fall/Winter 2014 show Monday at Seoul Fashion Week was a vibrant, luxurious throwback to vintage aesthetics. The looks were an amalgamation of influences, with references to several decades providing retro touches to the designer's signature futuristic style. Contrasts abounded in the collection: the silhouettes were masculine and feminine, soft and structured all at once. Alluring velvet and satin finishes sparkled against the matte wool and leather pieces, making the monochromatic looks as visually exciting as the color-blocked ones. A simple hand-drawn pattern became eye-catching and dynamic when repeated on sleek puffer jackets and bold platform booties. But perhaps the most interesting juxtaposition was the reappearance of Spring/Summer 2014's garter belt accents, bringing a detail reserved for undergarments to the forefront of an otherwise covered-up collection.
