Nicol DeNoir™ Futurism

Nicol DeNoir™ Futurism is based on a collection developed through innovation, using various textures, mixed fibres and layers. Out of the various categories Nicol DeNoir™ produce are Classics, Vintage, Ancient (Mythology, Anthrapology, Egyptology etc), and Futurism this range being the most detailed and complex of them all. The philosophy of each category is based on the past, present and the future.

This range is based on a strong woman, good girl turn bad (or had no choice but to toughen up), a superhero, the rebellious female, fierce with attitude and can kick ass if she needs to, the female warrior, the survivor, the matrix.

'Futurism was an artistic and social movement that originated in Italy in the early 20th century. It emphasized and glorified themes associated with contemporary concepts of the future, including speed, technology,' also 'The Futurists practiced in every medium of art, including painting, sculpture, ceramics, graphic design, industrial design, interior design, theatre, film, fashion, textiles, literature, music, architecture and even gastronomy'.

Aimed at women in the public eye who are likely to sing in a music video, capture an audience at a concert, or play a main role in an epic sci-fi movie. The concept is developed to create a response that will appeal to the viewing public in an effective way to captivate them towards the scene that is being played out.

As a young girl growing up my uncle loved his marvel comics and would often tell us great stories usually based on sci fi. He would tell them with so much passion that you'd be captivated everytime.

My interest developed from then and I would often be drawn in when watching films such as the matrix, terminator etc as in my eyes it showed how different the future is from what we expect it will be. 20 years ago it was rare to see someone with a mobile phone, now it's rare to find someone without one.

Patent leather and pvc is fashionable at present, so the range is developed with this in mind using various textures and finishes of black leathers, also available in other colours.
