It was a celebration of all things dance-inspired on the runway at Caitlin Crisp.
The Auckland designer drew on her own background in dance to inform the light, playful collection on display during her NZ Fashion Week show.
Just the second runway presentation on the schedule following the vibrant opening showcase, it was Crisp’s first solo NZFW outing and the crowd – themselves dressed in a rainbow of pastel tones – lapped up the feminine, whimsical designs.
A palette of ballet pink was a strong influence, but navy stripes, tiny polka dots and a peachy floral print also made an appearance in the range, sure to be a hit once the sun comes out.
Also on the runway? Ballerinas en pointe, giving the guests more of a performance than they were expecting.
Here’s a look at some of the designs from Caitlin Crisp’s collection:
