Edgy & Dark: I <3 Skingraft

Sunday March 13^th at ACE Gallery on Wilshire at Concept LA Fashion Week was the location of Skingraft’s private press & media sneak peek at the dark, goth-luxe men’s and women’s collection. It was well represented by ebony shades, leathers, and feathers. The presentation encourages  fashion fans to get in touch with their inner sexy by exploring a more covered up ensemble that incorporates edgy pieces and a skin-tight silhouette. One model had feathers on her leather jacket and it was reminiscent of Natalie Portman’s costume in Black Swan.

Each model had a carefully crafted head-piece that resembles a skunk that added an animalistic persona to the garments. Ultimately, Skingraft is a fall fashion collection that everyone should have a piece in their closet from. It will transform and ordinary outfit in to an extraordinary skin hugging ensemble and allow the canvas to channel one’s inner rebel.
