Eugene Lin’s new S/S’14 collection is interlaced with figurative references to the fabled Valkyries of Norse mythology. These female spirits of battle become swans with the aid of feathered cloaks – and legend has it that if one captures a Valkyrie whilst bathing in a river, they can extract a wish from her.

Washed in white, the collection is a panoply of soft tailoring, feathers and feminine hues structured by a high-waisted and mid-length silhouette. Jackets and coats feature draped necklines, while the cross detail – inspired by the folding of Valkyrie wings on the body – is worked through sculpted dresses and separates.

Trousers and pencil skirts are cut slim, with both fixed and loose pleats for texture and movement. Feather prints in contrasting tones add a sophisticated complexity to the feminine shapes via hand-crafted three-dimensional textured screen-prints, alongside minimal digital printing techniques. Plain coloured fabrics are treated with unique coatings to produce a distinctive fresh and wet look.
