AUTUMN/WINTER 2011-12
A Personal Saga.
Collection is inspired by Georgian traditional - in particularly Caucasian costume details, impregnated with pigment colors of Jean-Leon Gerome's academicism paintings. Creating an everyday wardrobe, constructing silhouettes with graphical lines out of metallic bands, inspired by measuring cage of a Roman tailor Luigi Branchini that enveloped the body and translated the results into a grouping of projections and rations. Using fabrics like flannel, alpaca wool, silk and linen, combining them with metal pieces integrated into the garments parts like collars and pockets or as closing buttons.
ODA demonstrates a time stretching voyage around the Oriental origin, its inhabitants and ethnic beginning. Collection is the radar towards eastern direction historically, awakening the fighting courage in each piece. Inventing a male shadow in a revolutionary but at the same time in an extremely honorable, truly masculine way, celebrating the birth of a resistance gene in an Arabesque warrior spirit.
Inspiration sources, artists like Girodet are on the verge of overdose with rebellion romantic black and white graphical prints, floating on crepe de chine. Persian carpet patterns disorient us on fine linen and metal bracelets twist the picturesque world of ODA like Rubik's cube.
