Riddle Me This Show Review

  

By Sammy Salsa

Riddle me this riddle me that....who's afraid of the big black bat? Is the famous quote used by The Riddler on "Batman", however the only thing puzzling about being at the Riddle Me This showcase was why in the heck did I offer my front row seat to a lovely girl all the way from Australia writing for their local fashion mag! "Am I too kind?" I ask myself! Maybe I need to be more like the latest collection from designers Riddle Me This, modern punk mixed in with a little bit of trailer trash attitude!

That was the feeling I got from this awesome collection! A mixture of simple, sheer dolly dresses using light synthetic materials accompanied by the harsh contrast of tartan patterns and crop tops. These showed the naval which gave it that London punk look which was big in the early 90s.

Other trends that flashed through the collection were the jagged edge dresses which gave a complete refreshing look to the dolly outfit. Casual sportswear inspired tops and bottoms were reflected through some of the street wear - complemented with lace, pleated outskirts and patterns to distinguish these fabulous designers from the rest!

Of course no modern punk look is complete without the good old colour in the hair, so to match the range models were dressed with shades of green, pink and purple hair dye from root to tip.

There is nothing puzzling about Riddle Me This. They definitely know who they are and we definitely know that we need some Riddle Me This in our lives!
