Giles Deacon took a major swan dive (pardon the pun!) with his Spring collection, into the theatrical planes of Cecil Beaton and Andy Warhol. The tone was staggeringly dramatic and flamboyant- swan-headdresses fashioned by milliner Stephen Jones took to the heads of models while they strutted down in beautiful couture dresses in chiffon, Swiss lace, duchess silk and tulle. The silhouette was streamlined and dignified- there were beautiful embroidery, laser-cut leather dresses, a cascade of ostrich feathers- all in a debonair palette of stark white, silver, blush, red and black. The Giles woman was to be a modern bright young thing, with a touch more excess. Closing the collection was a beautiful red ensemble that was evocative of the late Alexander McQueen's work.
