options, and most importantly spectacular views of New York City. The construction took more than a decade.

Nina Athanasiou’s Spring/Summer 2015 collection
draws its inspiration from Japanese folklore set in a modern context. As part
of the presentation, Nina debuted her much awaited fashion film, AKUMA,
directed by Huba Barat and starring Shaun Ross. AKUMA is the story about a demon
(Albino top model Shaun Ross) which comes to earth to hunt human beings in the streets
of Tokyo.
Staying true to her directional and avant-garde
aesthetic, Nina utilizes contrasting materials to convey looks that are both
innocent and robust. Crêpe de chine, latex, chiffon and leather are combined
with a subdued colour palette of grey, brown and pastels and alternate with
rough, distinctive prints.
Crisp suits, blouses and shirts illustrate
anatomical features while silver, porcelain and copper flies and insects adorn
dresses and belts. Nina maintains her romantic aesthetic by opting for rounded
collars, simple cuts, and petticoats for a 1950’s effect.
As far as the functionality of the pieces is
concerned, it has hardly been the main focus, these clothes are designed to
express yourself as an individual, to give a nonverbal statement.
The clear statement of all this is that fashion
is a mean of communication. It gives us the possibility to distinguish
ourselves. It expresses desire and is a gift to human
beings to reinvent themselves over and over again.
