bARBARA i gONGINI

Barbara I Gongini, originally from the Faroe Islands between Iceland and Norway, showed her 2nd runway show this season.  The collection featured architectural hair and body paint.  The choreography was one of the most complicated and well executed I've seen in some time.  For this season, Gongini referenced and exploration of 2 and 3 dimension and experimenting with how to create garments using the fewest incisions possible.
