This is just her fourth collection since finishing her masters, and Simone Rocha has proven a hit at London Fashion Week. For the fall/winter 2012-13 collection, the Irish designer presented a show full of magnificent contradictions, inspired by 1930s Dublin children and tribes in Papua New Guinea. The audience wanted more, as soon as possible.

Rocha's catwalk was a continuous flow of textures, as the designer went about redefining her look. Elegant, delicate and independent, the Rocha woman is about contrasts, with on the one hand white lace dresses finished with collars and other knitted details, silver skirts and transparent pvc garments, and on the other leather, ponyhair, small prints, tulle and tweed.

The shoes in Rocha's last collection were a hit among fashionistas, and she knows it. She continued her shoe line, making them more masculine and adding a plastic-effect neon touch.
