The collection is billed as 'This time Antoni and Alison are very serious...', but with its witty visuals, searing and soft colours and nifty tailoring it's open to debate. Perfect for camera ready Hollywood-types is a gold column dress with an AIDS ribbon attached and for chicly ageing ravers a metallic silver shift has an Acid House smiley face stencilled on the shoulder. Pencil skirts with slim fit blouses are 50s 'Miss Sex-atary' while clashing floral apron-front dresses are 'mumsy' chic. A-line shifts are demure in pinstripes with satin bows while others are quirky with crazy paving stone prints or photographic Autumnal scenes. Lady-like handbags printed with flames or cartoon-like penises and slogan T-shirts - 'I can play the piano' and 'Power to the People' - re-inforce the duo's 'serious' vibe.
