We know we can always count on Phillip Lim, designer and founder of label 3.1 Phillip Lim, to churn out clean lines and dapper silhouettes, and his Spring/Summer '15 runway not only proves us (very) right, but also showcases his versatility in this steadily changing climate we call "fashion", while still keeping close to the very principles which make up the label. A visual interpretation of Leonard Cohen's ever-so-impressionable quote, "“Forget your perfect offering. There is a crack in everything. That’s how the light gets in.”, his womenswear line explored not only the vulnerability of the female anatomy, but also the sensual intimacy of the bedroom space. An ingenious attempt at simultaneously exposing and hiding the body, the clever rips, tears and semi-sheer organza pants, paired almost seamlessly with the belted bra tops and undulating hemmed skirts, fully presented the revealing nature of both a lady's body and boudoir. His menswear collection, on the other hand is a skilfully curated coalescence of locker-room chic and boardroom class. Devoid of any superfluous couture pretence, Lim seamlessly pairs sporty details such as referee pinstripes and utility buckles, with dapper elements such as oversized suits and collared shirts. The amount of thought he puts into each piece only serves to overwhelm, and it's safe to say that at the heart of his design is nothing but a pure and genuine need to communicate, which is pretty darn rare nowadays.
