Fashion Scout | MaYa SS16 | London Fashion Week

Maral Yazarloo is the designer behind the collection, using the first two letters of her first and last name she created her brand name ‘Maya’.

Showcased through the House of Middle Eastern Asia, the collection draws inspiration from the traditional aspects of Middle Eastern culture ranging from Persia to Iran to India. 

As the name of name of the collection, ‘Deja vu’ suggest, it provokes nostalgia of past times. With models’ feet bound in leather, structured silhouettes and colourful suede the collection gives a powerful and natural aesthetic.

The model's hair created an ancient warrior feeling through an intricate basket weave which was then distressed, creating the perfect base for vibrant head pieces adorned with heavy embellishment.

Highlighting bronzer and gold shimmer eyeshadow from The Body Shop were key products used to complete the look. Used predominantly to illuminate the tear ducts, eye lids, temples, cheek bones and the cuspids bows the products creating luminous fresh skin tones, perfect under the lights of the runway.
