The Viktor and Rolf Fall 2012 collection is a dramatic line that features many fur-trimmed coats and suits, metallic and silk pajama-inspired jumpsuits and an overall art deco flair. There is said to have been an enormous moon at the back of the runway, adding to the themes of dark romance and hunter versus prey.
Viktor Horsting and Rolf Snoeren are behind the Viktor and Rolf Fall 2012 line. Another style showcased by the duo is a dramatic beauty look of deep plum/red lipstick and slick, middle-parted hair.
The line seems heavily influenced by the 1920s flapper look, but includes starkly modern touches, such as the shaving of patterns into fur coats and sheer black blouses with flowers strategically placed.
