Excited by Simplicity

Australian born, at the rue Charlot in Paris based designer Martin Grant presents for fall/winter 2009/10 dresses and coats with surprising details on structure (collars, bustiers) and volume (pleats, tailoring). In this collection magenta flashes over the shadow and asphalt grey, powder rose, night blue and black pieces of day and evening wear in silk, wool, angora, and gauze.

The designer, who strongly works from his own personal view on fashion shows his unhasty collections to a small, selected audience which knows about the value to be excited by simplicity.

The designer, born 1966 in Melbourne, has launched his first ready to wear line in 1982. He is wellknown for his strong focus on tailoring simple lines and the development of new methods for manufacturing details such as the collar on this page.

Martin Grant's style is described on his website as "...a mix of French charm and elegance in an almost sculptural way. The strictly shaped cuts always emphasize the curves of the body. The clothes are functional, with a sharp, geometric and structured silhouette, often military inspired, yet still completely feminine."
