Manning Cartell's "Absent Portrait" SS12/13 collection was ultimately inspired by artist Frida Kahlo and her fondness for colour and layering. There was plenty of clashing prints and textures, lots of floral and appliquéd rosettes, and a certain sporty luxe vibe in the collection. The key colours featured neon pink, white, emerald green, navy and grey, but floral was indeed the stand out. I think this collection definitely has an effect of movement and lightness within it which makes it quite beautiful and even though I have my favourite picks I think it was a stand out for day 1!
