Anthony Symonds's Urban Gladiators
By: Boyd Davis
Retro 80s meets the military look! Anthony Symonds once again took inspiration from the 1980s
and then fused it with the very hot military look this season.
Using palettes of black, red, blue and white, the clothes featured shoulder pads and epaulets.
Black capri leather, pencil skirts and boxy jackets were teamed with boots and finger-less
gloves made "chic-in-the-city" modern woman gladiators.
To soften the hard-edged look, ruffles and plunging necklines were added. Anthony Symonds's
sharp tailoring made these two incongruent elements look right together.
Although the look is a little to racy for my taste, the collection is very strong overall.
