The Thakoon Fall 2010 collection was a departure from the designer's usual colourful, playful clothing. While patterns and prints did still have a role for Fall/Winter 2010, Panichgul was favoring textures.
He sought inspiration in the form of half shorn sheep sending a variety of looks down the runway adorned with tight curled ruffles and large bald (or smooth) patches. There was also a lot of fur on the Thakoon Fall 2010 runway -- a trend that is sure to have PETA up in arms.
