Few high lights from the designers that show cased and exhibited:
Tykorchélli: In the world of high fashion, there are brands that stand out for their innovation, creativity, and sheer opulence. Tykorchélli is one such brand that has been making waves in the industry headlining at our previous fashion week event and has caused a global fashion storm.
The launch of The Royal Collection at House of iKons Fashion Week London February 2024 unveiled 20 stunning looks that exuded versatility in style, featuring a myriad of interchangeable options. From high fashion to theatrical flair to exquisite formal attire. This show, Tykorchélli became ‘Title Partner’ for House of iKons Ten Year Anniversary Special Show.
Dedicated to uncompromising fashion, specialising in exclusive couture with meticulous attention to detail. Every garment meticulously designed to enhance personal beauty and style.
Tykorchélli's philosophy revolves around "Making a Statement," aiming to capture the inner beauty of each individual and elevate it to new heights. The collection made a huge statement, and now they have taken luxury to a whole new level with the debut of their much-anticipated Diamond Collection - World Masquerade of Tykorchélli.
This collection consisted of bespoke gowns, abhaya’s and saris. Highlighting a diverse collection celebrating all cultures.
With special effects and a live performance from Sam Tinnesz created a dazzling theatrical performance with each look created by the designer dazzling on the runway.
Arabesque Boudoir: The CEO of this brand, Maya Mosteghanemi, is a prodigious artist and designer. Her expertise is in abstract oil paintings that explore the uncharted crevices of the subconscious. Maya believes that there is an infinite well of potential within all of us despite being constrained by our material selves. She is as ambitious as she is skilled thanks to her experience as a stylist, brand ambassador and business manager for Nina Ricci, Saint Laurent and Versace for over a decade.
Her latest collection Noeud Papillon (Bow Collection), is inspired by 11th century Renaissance Europe, namely the Ottoman Empire and Britain. This collection captured the passion, care and love for not only each other but for life. It captured Le Savoir Vivre that has taken a backseat in contemporary, alienated and impersonal society. The striking silhouette’s and grand colours created a sense of abundance and the intricate handmade embroideries alongside the quality fabrics added a subtle but powerful level of care within each piece. The piece Emma de Normandy is inspired by the Queen of the same name who herself was headstrong, proud and ambitious. The dedication and passion she put into ruling is reflective of the sentiments of the time. Her radiance emboldened through the gemstone embroideries present in the gown including cultured pearls, rhinestones and quartz crystals. Emma de Normandy was an accomplished woman and feminist icon even in a time where women were not empowered to do so. It is a lesson for people to follow their passions despite the gravity that faces us all. Every look on the runway highlighted elegance and grace, as well as confidence and strength.
Celebrity Stylist Ty-Ron Mayes, fashion beauty and style expert an known for styling Tyra Banks walked for this creative on the runway as of the main catwalk models.
