French designer Romain Kremer has made a name for himself during the last few Paris seasons as being just about as avant-garde as anyone can be. So everyone was surprised when what came out on the catwalk for the current season was actually wearable ! Fairly sporty and casual fabrics and silhouettes in beige and black dominated. Sure RK played with the length of his tops, making some of them very short. But that was adjusted with high-waisted pants. After a while came the stronger colors; turquoise and bright red shone a bright light from the catwalk. But the clothes were still not too extravagant. Mostly they were long jackets and coats, all of them collarless, track suit-looking bottoms and great jackets with subtle leather details. Towards the end, though, Romain Kremer couldn’t resist the temptation to kind of shock the audience. Out came a plastic fur fabric (actually Latex). Most models also wore sunglasses (made by German label Mykita for Romain Kremer) that also functioned as a protective plate for their foreheads. Everyone -those who craved a more mainstream direction and the ones who cherish Romain Kremer’s undeniable individuality- left satisfied and fulfilled.
