Shawn Hewson and Ruth Promislow, the creators of Bustle, never take themselves - or their clothes - too seriously, and their show on Monday night at LG Fashion Week proved this yet again.
Setting the stage with rock band Die Mannequin at the rear of the runway, the show kicked off with what seemed to be the lead singer spinning around and strutting his stuff, revealing that he was, in fact, one of the line's many models.
Exploding in pastel hues of purples, greens, blues and pinks set against whites and greys, the look was decidedly fun, not fussy. The jackets were cut both single- and double-breasted, and the extensive line allowed for so many options that it was easy to imagine mixing and matching them right backstage.
The designers had noted their admiration for Japan's willingness to experiment with fabrics, and this could be seen in the materials that ranged from standard wools to jeans crafted from a soft cotton to a suit jacket that appeared to double as a raincoat. One particular suit came in an iridescent fabric and colour that could only be described as robot-like.
