Crash test dummies in silk Canadian designer Andrew Majtenyi brings speed and dramatic into the London Fashion Week: the designer was inspired from crash test dummies and America’s ongoing fascination with police chases. Some of the cleverly tailored pieces show accents of chilly pepper red... While working on the collection Andrew Majtenyi produced the film "Smash".

What is ‘SMASH’ about?
-2 best friends are taking a drive in the countryside and are suddenly carjacked by a mad woman. The girls are tossed out of the car and a chase ensues, cumulating in a series of simultaneous car crash footages.
How does this theme tie into your A/W collection?
-Primarily the combination of damaged looking fabrics and plenty of textures. The models will be made up to look like crash test dummies with a slight reference to the crash test logo on their faces. next>>>
