The Stephanie McPherson FW 2012 collection boasts extreme romantic silhouettes and motifs. The line is reminiscent of a walk on the beach, with breezy fabrics, white sand tones and precious stones peppered onto pieces. The asymmetrical structuring and graphic application allows the series a contemporary edge, pushing past cruise wear. Certain pieces borrow more from futuristic and geometric styles, giving the collection a structural feel.
The Stephanie McPherson FW 2012 line was debuted at the L’Oreal Melbourne Fashion Festival. McPherson, like all of the designers at the event, is a graduate student of RMIT. The festival showcases the up-and-coming designers of Australia, pushing the limit in national and international fashion. McPherson's bold, yet wearable styles align her with a promising career.
