Other strong presenters were the already globally famous Tex Saverio who showcased his most wearable creations yet, though some of his early fans might find this collection as too safe. Patrick Owen also showed an expanded vision, as both his womenswear and menswear collections pushed new boundaries with experimentation in proportions and also in print use. The highlights of the second day consisted of the collections presented by Japanese designers who participated in this year’s JFW as part of an exchange program with Japan Fashion Week Organization.
