Today, she is still referring to the futuristic concepts, which can be seen in the collection she brought up the catwalk at BRICS+ Fashion Summit. Arzu Kaprol plays with architectural shapes and experiments with models and materials. The visitors saw lots of leather garments, which accentuated all the beauties of a female body. However, the collection embraced semi-transparent materials, velvet, and tinsel, too. The show was completed with few lighter looks – a volatile dress from pleated fabric and some bold garments with fur and animal prints.
