Models sporting bright lash-to-brow makeup looked curiously robotic in geometric prints, bleached washes, and balloon sleeves. The exaggerated volumes, jagged hemlines, and colorblocked shoes furthered the high-tech effect. Yet if the collection was sleekly avant-garde, it retained its wearability. Clashing prints, when combined with neutral separates, lessened the attention-grabbing factor of runway looks without losing their edginess.
