Shirr-Perfection: Polina Gorkovenko Spring 2021

Polina Gorkovenko’s Spring 2021 collection was shirr-perfection- the effect of fabric manipulation using shirring allowed for the same technique to invoke different effects from gathers and ruffles to pleats which evoke entirely different styles from the almost Elizabethan effect on the multicolored dress to the more understated gathering on the Afghan. The cropped jacket, of a seemingly ombré but truly speckled white and blue fabric, was original and dramatic with its accordion drawstring pleats, achieved with self-fabric ribbon drawstrings joined at the shawl collar; it was paired with matching high-waisted straight-leg ankle-length jeans.
