The KTZ Spring/Summer '16 collection has been revealed at this season's London Fashion Week. While the contemporary brand brought neoclassicism to New York last season, the London-based label is back in its hometown with a collection of 41 edgy looks.
KTZ is known for creating its own fashion movements and style waves, so while 70s style may be having a moment, KTZ is providing the total opposite. The KTZ S/S '16 collection is a line of modern looks that feature chain-link prints, splattered paint and eccentric patchwork.
Cool outerwear is constructed out of an interesting fabric that mirrors a crumpled lunch bag. An edgy rocker vibe is offered through leather clad looks from bondage-esque bra tops to applique-adorned mini skirts .
