Gripp Jeans is one of my new favorite fashion label. They are located in Australia.The collection has a renaissance of ‘gothic chic’ and is heavily inspired by the occult vampire movie “The Hunger” (1983), David Bowie’s Berlin Period and the insurgence of synthesized club sounds of Depeche Mode.
Sophisticated glamour sized with a rock vamp edge, leaving the collection with a feel of lust and utter abandonment. Key pieces such as the corsets in power net and lace emphasise feminine virtues such as the décolletage. Fitted body dresses in lace and draped jersey play a game of peek-a-boo on the derriere and feminine assertiveness is expressed with strong structural lines in shoulder detailing.
A touch of darkness and a tougher edge is seen in the collection with the predominantly black colour palette, over sized tailored jackets to drape over the shoulders, the usage of leather and heavy metal hardware and trims. Metal collar tips, snap studs and hook & eye fastenings glisten reflecting the black like shine of a raven’s eye.
