Showcasing his first collection for Paris Fashion, Albert Kriemler's Akris Spring 2010 collection saw the designer testing the waters by opting for a minimalist approach, but adding elements such as geometric cut-outs -- which were scissored apart and then glued together -- to keep the line quirky and fresh.
The cut-out couture that was omni-present at the Akris Spring 2010 RTW show was accompanied by leathers, sheer chiffons and mesh along with fine silks.
Implications - Businesses that are able to infuse one industry with highly desirable characteristics of another industry will likely appeal to a much wider audience. Consumers will be drawn to those products that represent their personal preferences and tastes in original ways.
