AW14: BIONIC BODIES
Galvanize your form with the inimitable body armor of the Chromat Autumn/Winter 2014 BIONIC BODIES collection.
Garments range from an intimate base layer of delicately structured lingerie, to intimidating chromed metal plates shielding your core, to invigorating wearable semiconductor light source technology enabled cages.
The new BIONIC BODIES collection tells the story of a love affair between a human and a robotic being. Fall in love with each piece of technology and fashion.
Here's what people are saying about the new BIONIC BODIES collection:
"Paying attention to the way the external complements the internal is the driving idea behind Chromat. McCharen's vision promises to push our sense of what fashion can be."
– Vogue
"[McCharen's] first runway show made it clear that she was not one to watch, but one to see. She's working with technology in unprecedented ways."
– Dazed and Confused
"There were chromatic armored bras, gladiatorial references, sheer fabrics with cool cut-outs and futuristic femmes fatales strewn with LEDs. Think Bladerunner meets Helmut Newton; a smattering of Victorianism and serious cybernetic embellishments. The conceptual headgear was out of this world."
– i-D
"A runway highlight at the MADE Fashion Week show was one model who came down the catwalk wearing a bra and face mask that incorporated LED lights for the ultimate bionic babe moment."
– Paper
