LFW exhibitors: Morana Kranjec

Today I would like to draw the attention on one of the exhibitors of the fashion week,

which I found very interesting for the technique and methods used. 

At the Vauxhall Fashion Scout, one of the designers on the permanent exhibition

aside the catwalk shows was Morana Kranjec.

Morana Kranjec is a Croatian designer who studied Textile Technology at the University of Zagreb.

 

She has been strongly inspired by Japan in her designs, using armour shapes,

but also creating origamis for her dresses.

 

Her whole collection is hand-made using paper, and every single piece shows

very bold and rich Lady-Gaga-style designs.

   

Morana Kranjec has been inspired by Goran Konjevod’s origami works and by Iris Van Herpen’s designs. The shapes are usually quite simple, but the construction of the patterns is very complex.

Her collection conveys futuristic designs yet emphasizing women shapes, but it is also very interesting because it combines fashion with architecture through 3D forms.
