Hamish Morrow was a no-show this season, opting to present his technically complex collection—he likes to integrate high-tech concepts with traditional methods of making clothes—in a Paris showroom. For fall, he ran lengths of stretchy industrial cord through silk jersey to make dresses and tops which can be draped, ruched, and tightened by the wearer. Prints were derived from thermal imaging, which mapped the body to show clusters of color—swirling forms of purple, magenta, and green—at the stress points. As always, his knack is melding opulent, feminine surface effects onto sporty bases: One outstanding piece was a slick coat panelled in champagne sequins. Why the change in venue? "It's a time when I felt it sensible to reorganize and concentrate on selling," he said.
