Taking a plunge into the future and opening a new chapter Splash unveiled a special line titled ‘Studio Collection’ that will be exclusive to the bi-annual splash fashion shows. The Fall Winter line-up was showcased in a 20 minute runway extravaganza on 45 international models while Madinat Arena, Madinat Jumeirah was transformed into a contemporary timeless hall that would take on color and projections. A multitude of doors on multi-levels, used by models to come in and out of the catwalk abstract pace with doors created drama representing choices and different paths that people may take once they come of age ie 21. An interesting collage of LED projections that draw from the daily nuances of life were used on the floor, walls and behind doors to bring alive the Splash runway.
