<\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/p>\nModels descended to the catwalk to the sounds of the Highlands, styled in a medley of red, green and grey tartan. Sculptured separates drew focus to the models\u2019 waist and hips, keeping true to the Nielsen\u2019s signature style.<\/p>\n
Sharp tailoring, architectural folds and pleats were prominent throughout; all referred back to Vestiarium Scoticum, a controversial book of Scottish costume, and the fitting title of the collection. <\/p>\n
If you\u2019ve seen the Fashion Fringe winner\u2019s past collections, you\u2019ll know that Nielsen is not one to shy away from attention to detail and this offering was no different; models\u2019 faces were concealed with plaid patterns and extravagant headpieces fabricated from pheasant\u2019s feathers garnished each look. <\/p>\n
As the show progressed, the pieces became more elaborate. Silk high-necked blouses were paired with twist-cut trousers, accesorised with a draped scarf. The show was brought to a close by a voluminous, floor-skimming cape in purple Duchess satin, with bulges of fabric in every direction; a savior for a multitude of sins. <\/p>\n
