FASHION FORECASTSPRING/SUMMER 2014
The evolving impact of online culture on design is mirrored in the pixelated minimalism,
synthetic effects, and beautifully twisted concepts of N.D.A. A sharp preppy approach to
lo-fi digital ideas creates clean lines, inlaid constructions and composite colour
arrangements - in stark contrast to dreamlike blurred sheers, fade-out stripes and ombré
treatments. Sartorial quirks merge with profile updates for a strangely personal way to
disrupt high-fashion looks. Plastic fantasies drive an unreal, cartoon-like direction of
playful prints and styling.
